Description

Meet Douglas, a dog with a big problem- he needs eyeglasses but doesn't know it, and his bad eyesight tends to land him in some pretty hairy situations. Meet Douglas, a dog with a big problem- he needs eyeglasses but doesn't know it, and his bad eyesight tends to land him in some pretty hairy situations. Readers will laugh along with the new picture book character Douglas as he chases a leaf that he mistakes for a squirrel, walks through wet cement because he can't see the warning sign, and annoys the neighbor's dog by mistakenly eating out of his bowl. And when Douglas's owner Nancy finally takes him to what is clearly an eyeglass store and Douglas asks, "Why are you taking me to a shoe store?" everyone will be giggling. After an eye exam confirms that Douglas needs glasses, and Nancy helps him find the perfect pair, readers will rejoice with Douglas as he sees all the amazing things he's been missing! Both kids and parents will laugh out loud-and may even recognize themselves!-while reading this utterly irresistible, hilarious picture book.
