[Monique](S2S2FPDS) was an 8-year-old girl with a bright smile and a heart full of curiosity. She loved going to school, but there was one thing she dreaded—her new eyeglasses. They were purple-framed and shiny, but [Monique](S2S2FPDS) thought they made her look silly.

Every morning, [Monique](S2S2FPDS) would slip her glasses into her bag instead of wearing them. At school, things started to get tricky—she couldn't read the chalkboard clearly, and words in her textbooks looked fuzzy. She grew frustrated but didn't want to tell anyone.

One afternoon, [Monique](S2S2FPDS) walked to the library, feeling a little down. 'I wish I didn't need glasses,' she thought. She sat in a quiet corner surrounded by shelves full of books, looking at the ones she couldn't read easily.

Suddenly, a friendly librarian noticed her. 'What's on your mind, [Monique](S2S2FPDS)?' she asked. [Monique](S2S2FPDS) hesitated but finally said softly, 'I don’t like wearing my glasses because I think people will laugh at me.'

The librarian smiled warmly. 'Let me show you something.' She handed [Monique](S2S2FPDS) a magnifying glass. [Monique](S2S2FPDS) held it over a tiny drawing in a book and gasped. Everything became clear and bright!

'You see, [Monique](S2S2FPDS),' said the librarian, 'Sometimes we need help seeing the beauty in the world. Glasses are like magic lenses—they let you see things clearly and enjoy them fully.'

That night at home, [Monique](S2S2FPDS) stood in front of the mirror. She put on her purple glasses and tilted her head. 'These aren't so bad,' she realized. They made her smile look even brighter.

The next day, [Monique](S2S2FPDS) walked into school wearing her glasses. Her classmates looked up and smiled. 'You look cool!' said Latrice, her best friend. [Monique](S2S2FPDS) laughed, feeling braver than ever.

From then on, [Monique](S2S2FPDS) discovered how much easier and more fun school became with her glasses. She could see the chalkboard, read her books, and even notice the little details outdoors—like the fluffy clouds and tiny ladybugs.

Every time [Monique](S2S2FPDS) looked through her glasses, she remembered the librarian's words. 'These really are magic lenses,' she thought, 'and I'm proud to wear them.'
