Manolito Four-Eyes, a well-known character in Spain, has finally made it to the United States. This humorous episodic book follows ten-year-old Manolito, called "four-eyes" because of the glasses he's worn forever, as he navigates his Madrid neighborhood. With the help of his family, especially his grandfather, Manolito deals with bullies, friends, and the school psychologist in ways that will keep readers laughing.
