About this ebook
Fifth grader Andrea, getting glasses for the first time, just wants to see better. She has suspicions about the creepy building her ditzy Aunt Bets finds—and about the white-coated woman, Ms. Weirse, who fits her with strange-looking glasses. Then Andrea discovers her thrilling power to change people with those glasses. And then, before you can say “focus,” she’s in Big Trouble.
