“Arlo Needs Glasses”
By: Barney Saltzberg

This book is about a dog who could not play catch anymore because he needed glasses.  He has to see an eye doctor and decide which glasses he likes best. This cute book is very interactive as it has pop ups, pull tabs, Velcro, and cardboard glasses for the reader or child to try on as well. (Liam loves when I put on the funky frames and sometimes lets me put them over his actual glasses as well.) 
It’s a great book for teaching kids about getting glasses and visiting the eye doctor. I think it will come in handy later on when he begins to ask us questions about why he has to wear his glasses. Either way it’s a fun book for parents to read to their kids and interact with together.  I think on top of having fun it’s important for kids to hear that:
“The message is clear…Glasses Rock!”
