‘Here comes four-eyes!’ Jerry is bullied for wearing glasses. When he realises his short-sightedness is not a disability but a new way of perceiving and understanding the world around him, he begins to look at it from a new, unique perspective. He even starts to believe he might have super-powers, but soon learns a great deal about himself and about the boy who is making his life such a misery. Has Jerry discovered a new way of dealing with firmly held opinions? Myopia is a novel about bullying, friendship and learning the hard way.
