Karen's School Picture: A Graphic Novel (Baby-sitters Little Sister #5) (Adapted edition) (Baby-Sitters Little Sister Graphix)
Another graphic novel in this fun series spin-off of The Baby-sitters Club, featuring Kristy's little stepsister!
Karen has to get glasses! She doesn't want them, especially because school pictures are going to be taken soon. But she picks out some pretty pink ones and thinks she looks very grown-up.
Then Yicky Ricky at school starts calling her names, like Owl Girl and Googly Eyes. If Karen wears her glasses for the school picture, Ricky will make fun of her. If she doesn't wear them, she'll feel like she's afraid to be herself. Glasses or no glasses, that Ricky is going to get it!

It was good to see the issue of glasses, bullying and discrimination shown. The difficulty of wearing glasses young is the name calling. It is a shame that the teacher did nothing to work it out but I was glad to see her become more comfortable with them as time went on.
