The Eyes Have It!
JACOB'S EYE PATCH by Beth Kobliner Shaw and Jacob Shaw with illustrations by Jules Feiffer. Simon and Schuster, 2013.
Jacob wears an eye patch to strengthen a weak eye. But he is annoyed at all the questions from strantgers as he and his Mother head to the scinece store. All Jacob wants is a light up globe. Amblyopia (lazy eye) affects many people. Here is a lovely way of letting kids know what is going on.
