What is a dragon to do? This tale is about such dragon in the quest of his beloved friends and the journey he undertakes to find them. This is a fractured fairy tale with delightful characters for children ages 8 to 12 and their parents.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIt is not always easy to wear glasses in a society where \"being perfect\" is admired and imperfection is criticized. It is seen as a weakness and even the super heroes only wear glasses as a disguise and an excuse to act meek and cowardly. As a visually impaired person having felt the scorn and margination in society, I decided that children need a hero to look up to that also wore glasses. Even strong, scary dragons can have visual problems. I hope this little story will boost children's self esteem and see themselves as heroes. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elaine Yvette Leith\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1948820358\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781948820356\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Toku Publishing, LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/12\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 30\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.67lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 8.50w x 0.25d","brand":"Elaine Yvette Leith","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44125713301759,"sku":"9781948820356","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9564f243-48b0-4e48-b1ba-b99cdb36e4f7.jpg?v=1687444263","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-nearsighted-dragon-that-loved-elaine-yvette-leith-9781948820356","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
