Dr. Samantha Slotnick Empowers Young Minds through Vision and Learning in But MOMMY, I can SEE
“The greatest barrier to learning is often the one we cannot see. When we help a child’s eyes work better together, we don’t just improve vision—we unlock the doorway to attention, confidence, and a lifelong relationship with learning.”
— Dr. Samantha Slotnick, Author of But MOMMY, I can SEE!
About the Book
But MOMMY, I can SEE! is a compelling and educational children’s book that goes beyond traditional storytelling by addressing a commonly overlooked issue in childhood development—visual perception and its impact on learning. Through the story of Sylvia, readers are introduced to the subtle yet significant differences between simply “seeing” and truly “seeing well.”
As Sylvia receives her first pair of prescription glasses, her journey unfolds through meaningful conversations with her optometrist, offering valuable insights into how vision affects reading, attention, and classroom performance. The book helps children and parents understand that glasses are not just for those who “can’t see,” but can also be a powerful tool for enhancing focus, comprehension, and confidence.
What sets this book apart is its seamless blend of engaging storytelling, relatable experiences, and medically grounded information. Enriched with vivid illustrations by Daniel W. Miller, the story also incorporates real-life scenarios—from classroom settings to family interactions—making it both educational and emotionally resonant. A unique feature of the book is the inclusion of “Casey,” Sylvia’s imaginative glasses case, which adds a whimsical and memorable layer to the narrative.
The book also introduces readers to the fundamentals of visual development, including how the eyes work together and how certain visual challenges can impact learning. It further provides global resources to help families connect with behavioral and developmental optometrists. Designed for children, parents, educators, and healthcare professionals alike, this book is positioned to become an essential resource in both homes and classrooms.
