Get to know your glasses and become a proud glasses-wearer!

Kitty and Joe wear glasses, and thanks to that, they can see the world in full detail, beautiful and clear as it is.

Maybe you're getting used to your own new pair of glasses right now, and maybe you're not sure what to think about this funny thing on your nose. Will it really be as useful as adults tell you? Will it ever stop feeling funny? Will you ever be able to see past the frames?

And what if other children mock you?

But there's nothing to fear, really! With glasses, your life will be awesome.

In My New Glasses, you'll learn everything you've always wanted to know about your new aid: how eyesight works, how the doctor figured out you see poorly, who invented the very first glasses and what they looked like, what glasses of the future will be able to do, and much more.
