A quirky book by the author of the Westing Game. A little girl needs glasses because she keeps misinterpreting what she sees. The illustrations are what make the story fun. The picture on the cover shows two views: the real view, and how the little girl sees it.

Very cute, and dependent on the illustrations for the cuteness. Might be especially funny for people who got glasses when they were young. Maybe it's about the author's own experiences! (
