I Have Four Eyes
"Why must I have four eyes when most of us have two?" asks a little girl who dislikes wearing glasses.
Mama tells her stories about Impressionist painters who created beautiful artwork. They had a unique perspective when viewing the world, just like her daughter.
Having two different ways of seeing is not a detriment, it is a gift. I Have Four Eyes encourages everyone to love what they are and embrace what they have.
Where To?
Father, Mother, Brother, and Sister are on a whimsical quest to find their perfect home. They live in a treehouse and then a boathouse, an igloo and even a shoe! But despite the wonders they encounter, each home has its challenges. So, the family continues their search, always hopeful and excited for what comes next.
This story is filled with imagination, adventure, and the comforting message that home is not a place, but a feeling we create with the people we love. It encourages children to appreciate family and the magic in everyday life.
More
