Thank you for the ARC. What an educational book about eye sight. They use super hero’s to show how “super” eye sight is.

This is a really great and simple guide to how the sense of sight works, created specifically for young readers! I especially liked the idea of each sense being a specific super hero - this will be highly interesting to kids and it's super fun. As for the visuals: I usually don't like when images are exclusively from Shutterstock, but it actually worked for this book. It's a rare occurence, but this book cracked the code! Lastly, the author used accurate terminology and explained it all in an age-appropriate and easy-to-understand way. I have nothing bad to say about this book - bravo!

This is a children's book about the basics of sight. We learn about the eye and its structures. We learn about different animals who have unique abilities to see.

A very early read regarding the sense of the title, part of a series that covers them all one by one. This dresses our sight up as a character called Dr C U Clearly, who might need help from his other sensory companions, and/or glasses, but gets to present all a very young reader would need to know about sight and eyes through a set of photos given narrative comic strip panels. It could have gone down the full comic path, or had a standard presentation, but there is nothing wrong here with the clarity, science and common sense of the text. The photos are obvious and diverse, and it's all a success – the whole series could easily have fitted within two covers, but each small booklet is, on this evidence, a healthy four stars.

This is a wonderful introduction not only to what sight can do and why it is important, but also to the specifics of how sight works, and the different parts of the body involved in letting you “see”. This would be amazing for children around the age of 2-5.
