And they interact with Arlo as he rediscovers how to be the best ball-catcher in the neighbourhood and picks up a new favourite pastime along the way - reading! One out of five school-age children needs glasses. Arlo will show them just how lucky they are.
Kids will love this hilarious fairy tale adventure packed with clever twists, familiar characters and page-turning fun.
