"Congratulations on Randy Kazandy, Where Are Your Glasses? I admire your commitment to writing childrens books with positive messages. You have my best wishes for the success of Randy Kazandys first adventure and for those to come!” - Former First Lady, Laura Bush

Randy doesnt like glasses but his mom is a detective and keeps her keen eye on her rambunctious child. Mom is like a rocket who takes off into action as Randy tries to ditch his specs at every turn. Mom is loaded and ready to fire by bringing out a new pair of glasses, then another pair, then another. Will she win this war with Randy?

Randy Kazandy, Where Are Your Glasses? is a part of the Auracle line from Auryn. The app is based on Rhonda Fischer’s book by the same name, illustrated by Kim Sponaugle

▶ KEY EDUCATIONAL THEMES:
-Teach children the importance of listening to parents/elders
-Kids will not shy away from glasses after reading this story

▶ EXTEND THE LEARNING! ASK YOUR CHILD:
-To name various items in the grocery store in the app.
-“Name the various colors around in the house”

▶ ENHANCE CREATIVITY BY PERSONALIZING THE STORY:
- You can write your own version of the text for the book
- Personalize the narration: kids or parents can re-record the narration to make it their own!

▶ DEVELOP READING SKILLS WITH THESE LITERACY TOOLS:
- Image and word association vocabulary builder - when an image on the screen is touched, the associated word is spoken and the written word is displayed.
- Karaoke effect - when a word is spoken during narration then the word is highlighted.
- Touch a word to hear it being spoken in “Read Myself” mode (almost like “training wheels” for new readers)

▶ THREE WAYS TO READ THE BOOK:
1) "Read to me" - Listen to the narrated story while the text is displayed Karaoke style. After the narration finishes on a page the child can interact with objects until they are ready to move to the next page.
2) "Auto Play" - same as "Read to Me" except the page advances automatically once the narration is finished. Useful for those long car rides when you want the child to have a complete book experience.
3) "Read myself" - There is no narration but the child can touch a word to hear it being spoken aloud.
