Wendy  Warbler  Up  Close!  is based on the author's own experience with near-sightedness as a child and her need to wear glasses to experience the world in 20/20.

The second of a six-book children’s wellness set, Wendy Warbler Up Close! focuses on physical wellness. Appropriate for grades Pre-K-3, as well as the child in all of us, the set also addresses emotional, intellectual, spiritual, interpersonal and environmental wellness.
