Bookroo's summary

Maisy and her friend Ella visit Dr. Flamingo for an eye test. While Maisy enjoys playing pirate, Ella struggles with blurry vision. With the help of a special machine and funny glasses, Ella sees clearly and chooses stylish yellow frames. Maisy finds her own red sunglasses, turning a daunting visit into a fun adventure. Will Ella's new glasses change how she sees the world?

From the publisher

Come along with Maisy for her first-ever eye test in a delightful story sure to help make this a rosy experience for little patients. When Maisy’s friend Ella has trouble seeing numbers on the board at preschool, the two go together to Dr. Flamingo the optometrist’s office to have their eyes tested. Pirate Maisy has fun wearing an eyepatch and naming all the things she can see in a picture on the wall. But when it’s Ella’s turn, everything inside the picture looks blurry. Oh dear! Luckily, Dr. Flamingo is there to take care of her, with a special machine that looks inside her eyes and some big funny glasses with dials that let Ella see everything clearly. Best of all, she gets to pick out some yellow-framed glasses, and Maisy finds some snazzy red sunglasses of her own. With Lucy Cousins’s trademark brilliant colors and cheery characters, this twenty-third First Experiences story is ideal for reassuring little ones ahead of their first visit to the eye doctor.
