Tiger and My Eye Patch

Bol

In Tiger and My Eye Patch, classmates nickname the protagonist Pee Wee the Pirate because she wears an eye patch and glasses to correct her lazy eye. Spending summer vacation with her grandparents and their mischievous Great Dane named Tiger in Johnson City, New York, gives her a break from taunting. During Pee Wee's visit, Tiger causes several of his usual accidents due to his enthusiasm and size. When Tiger chases a squirrel into a busy street and causes traffic to halt, he needs serious help. It's the protagonist's distinct appearance that coaxes Tiger back to safety. Author and educator Colleen Lent uses her childhood experience being teased for her lazy eye to write this uplifting story for children, especially those self-conscious about a physical difference they believe separates them from their peers.Tiger and My Eye Patch received the Literary Titan Gold Book Award (January 2, 2026), the Creative Child Magazine Top Choice Award (November 25, 2025), and the Golden Book Wizard Prize (October 28, 2025).
