"Arlo Needs Glasses" - A Fun Story Designed to Help Children Who Have or Need Glasses

Does your child need glasses? This book will help kids understand the need for glasses. Barney Saltzberg talks about "Arlo Needs Glasses" on this edition of "The Kids' Bookshelf." The author/illustrator describes how his dog "Arlo" inspired the book. He reads a portion of the book and talks about helping children learn to read.

"Arlo Needs Glasses" is an inspiring and entertaining story for every child who needs or wears glasses. When Arlo can't see, he can't play catch and he can't read, so he goes to have an eye exam. The book explains why glasses are needed, describes a trip to the optometrist, and even shows Arlo, the dog, picking out a pair of glasses.

Barney Saltzberg is the author-illustrator of many children’s books including “Beautiful Oops!”, the “Kisses” series, “Peekaboo,” “Crazy Hair Day,” and “Good Egg.” He is also a singer-songwriter who has written tunes for the PBS show "Arthur" and continues to perform music for children.

Hi!, I'm Dan Skinner. Thanks for watching this interview. "The Kids' Bookshelf" is a channel for adults looking for age-appropriate books for the children in their lives. The series features interviews with authors and illustrators of children's books including picture books, chapter books, and middle-grade books. Viewers will learn about the inspiration for the books, what themes are explored in the books, and see sample illustrations. My goal is to give you enough information to decide if the book would be a good addition to your child's library. The series also provides a sneak peek into the creative process of the authors and illustrators.
