See For Yourself: Five kids. Five pairs of Glasses. Five completely different stories. (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798251711509)

Five kids. Five pairs of glasses. Five completely different stories.

At Beacon Hill Elementary, the school nurse hands out that envelope - the one your parents open with a look on their face that means something is about to change. This year, five third-graders get the news: they need glasses.
Nate Torres, class comedian, turns his new frames into a bit - until someone else writes the punchline. Amara Osei, the quietest artist in school, discovers that the world she's been drawing has details she never knew existed - and that wearing glasses in the cafeteria takes more courage than picking up a pencil. Leo Chen, star midfielder, can finally see the ball from across the field - but when his lenses fog up in the biggest game of the season, he has to decide what matters more than winning. Sofia Reyes already wears a hearing aid. Now glasses too? She's not interested in another pep talk - she just wants them to fit. And Ruby Kim, who plans every outfit down to the hair clips, has to face the one accessory she never asked for.

Their stories bump into each other in hallways, cafeteria lines, and art rooms - five kids figuring out what it means when the world suddenly looks sharper and everyone is looking at you.

Funny, honest, and never preachy, See For Yourself is for every kid who ever squinted at a whiteboard, held a book too close, or wondered whether glasses would change everything. (Spoiler: they do. Just not the way you think.)
