Randy Kazandy, Where Are Your Glasses is a great book for children, whether they might need glasses or not. The real lesson of the book, is that things that make you different aren't bad, just different. Randy doesn't want to wear his glasses at first, though he needs them badly. He thinks they make him look "like an alien from space." It's understood, though not stated, that he's afraid he'll be teased by the other children. Unlike any other book of it's kind, the book is written in lyrical rhyme, with perfect meter, something rarely if ever seen. It's also a high quality book, printed in the USA, that should last for a good while, even though the children that receive it tend to take it everywhere they go. It may even last so they can hand it down to their children, maybe even their grand children. The illustrations are brilliant, Kim Sponaugle did a wonderful job of getting the pictures just right. The author, Rhonda Fischer, is a brilliant, classically trained musician that has focused her considerable skills on writing children's books. One need only read the lyrical rhyme to know that there is music in the soul of the author, it shows that much in the way the words flow. The underlying theme of Randy Kazandy isn't that children should wear their glasses, it's that they should love who they are, even the things that make them different. Randy's motto becomes, "I love being me." Do have your children visit the Randy Kazandy website, ([...]) there are games to play there that ophthalmologists say are actually good for children's eyes, yet they're fun and entertaining. I highly recommend this book above most children's books, since there are few if any like it, done with the style and quality of this one. Hopefully, you'll agree that quality is still important. Get this book for your children or grand children, you won't be disappointed, and neither will they.
