From the publisher

This magical and richly illustrated book opens with King Edward and Queen Victoria noticing that their daughter, Princess Liana, can’t see very far, which means she’s missing out on all the wonders of the Kingdom of TuaLuna. What can they do? She can’t see little flowers, stars in the night sky, or ladybugs!

Young readers are invited to share the journey as Princess Liana and her father set off to meet Maximilian, the court magician, to see how he could help. Princess Liana is given a magical eye test, and then is presented with an amazing pair of eyeglasses which allow her to see a new world filled with glorious detail.

The book includes fun questions from Princess Liana to young readers, and helpful tips from the author to the parents of girls who currently have or may need to get glasses.
