"Arlo Needs Glasses" Autographed Book Giveaway!

   Remember this fella, Arlo? The fluffy pooch who needed glasses?

Well, we're here to remind you why we love this charming book, Arlo Needs Glasses, and offer a giveaway of one hard-bound, autographed copy of Barney Saltzberg's mini-masterpiece. Directions for entering this one-of-a-kind giveaway are at the end of this post.

But first, we'd like to tell you why we're so taken by this tale of a near-sighted canine and the boy who loves him enough to make sure he can keep playing fetch...The book, written for children three and up (up to 100, we say!), is 3-D, tactile and interactive, (wait to you see what "pops up" at the end!) which makes it perfect to engage young children, even before they've learned to read. And it tells a brief, but timeless story of a youngster trying to help his dog-in this case to regain his ball fetching abilities. But it does something else-it makes wearing glasses cool, even for a dog! So if you know a youngster who's on the verge of getting glasses and a bit shy or worried about it, read this book with your young friend - it will surely help him or her dive right in to the lens wearing crowd. We think this book is clever, sweet and educational from start to finish-Parental Unit and I read it together and both loved it!
