"an important wake-up call for adults to have their children’s vision corrected" KIRKUS REVIEWS (for book 1, Misty Mole Gets New Glasses)

Join Misty, a friendly little mole, on a mission to reduce screen time and save her friends' eyesight!

Misty Mole is frustrated because all her friends have mobile phones and tablets, but she does not! She finally persuades her parents to buy her a mobile phone, and plays on it all the time—even under her desk at school! When her eyes get sore, blurry and she can’t sleep, Misty Mole pays a visit to the eye doctor. All of her friends are there with the same concerns: sore, tired eyes, headaches, and blurry vision. The eye doctor informs them that spending less time on screens and more time outdoors is important for their eye health. But everyone is too obsessed with their video games and apps, so Misty Mole needs to think of a creative way to reduce screen time and restore fun in the Woodlands...
