Liesbet Slegers (1975, Belgium) studied Graphics and Illustrations at the Saint-Lucas institute of Antwerp. She works as a fulltime graphic designer and illustrator. With her simple, recognizable style and vivid colours she knows how to attract the attention of every toddler. In her many books, Slegers frequently focuses on “the first experience of a toddler,” a time she characterized as “exciting but also very scary! I try to help them with my books,” she added, “and also try to give the parents or teacher some assistance!”

"This a cute little book to teach little ones about Optometrists and eye exams. The illustrations are bright and colorful, attractive for children. The writing is an excellent blend of educational information and interesting facts to keep kids interested. This book is a perfect gift for children preparing for their first visit to the optometrist." - OLD MILL POND ELEMENTARY"It can be frightening to go to the doctor not knowing all that will take place. The eye doctor can be more intimidating as it is up close and a very sensitive area of our body. This book for children will help with the fears and the questions on what an eye doctor does and why. All the machines and what to expect. I found it very helpful and would be a great resource for children that will have to visit the optometrists for any eye concern. The illustrations were complete and kid friendly. Highly recommend." - Cross Media, Innov"Okay this was such a great book. I worked with optometrists and opticians for six years and this book I’ve already told them all to get a copy! It was fun. Well written. And informative." - Bargain and Books
