This title comes from Calvin Can't Fly, everybody's favourite bookworm birdie is back. It is beautifully illustrated by Keith Bendis. It is suitable for children aged 4 to 8. Everybody's favourite bookworm birdie is back - and something's wrong! When Calvin reads the word 'wagons', he sees 'dragons' instead, and he's tripping over the library chairs. Calvin needs glasses! When his family checks out the new specs, though, they just tease him. Poor Calvin. But when he gets lost and trapped in the forest, it's Calvin's glasses (and smarts) that save the day. Soon EVERYONE thinks glasses are great, and Calvin's clan becomes the coolest flock of starlings in the sky.
