Hi My name is Auriel Blanche,

The Magic Sunglasses is a book I first wrote for one of my lovely nieces over 24 years ago  when she was about  12 and not feeling very confident or good about herself . The story seemed to help her and has helped many other children since  learn how to feel really great about themselves.

The Magic Sunglasses tells the story of a shy young girl called Samantha of about 12yrs old.  Samantha  had a big dream of things she wanted to do – Samantha  dared to dream that she too could be successful, even though her family didn’t support her and she was just an ordinary  young girl.  But how can she  make her dream come true? 

One day she finds some Magic Sunglasses on a local market stall.  Now these are no ordinary sunglasses – they have a strange and marvellous power which support and guide Samantha to discover what you can do if you learn to believe in yourself.

After a series of crazy and exciting adventures which help her in her quest, Samantha realises that she doesn’t need the Magic Sunglasses any more –because she has discovered her  inner strength - that the power to succeed was always within her – as it is for everybody including the readers of this book!

What parents/teachers say about The Magic Sunglasses Book





It is a great book to start children thinking of their own values, their own powers and believe in themselves. I learned this a lot later in life.


As a parent I just wish this had been around for my kids,


I was a school governor for 4 years at a large comprehensive in Nottingham, tough times for many kids, all based on low self esteem, self worth and not being allowed to be different. 


"The Magic Sunglasses" is just the business. Auriel get it in schools!

The inspirational concept of the book really gets kids going and the storyline is so much fun - any parent will thank you for buying this for their child!


This is one book that adults should read themselves, as well as to their children!!


This book is a wonderful tale that provides powerful paradigms in a subtle manner for children to adopt.


A wonderful book, really well told and beautiful illustrations. My daughter loves it and now all her friends are reading it too.

I loved the book!!!!! I am going to let my 7 year old granddaughter read it and then it will be going on my daughter, Sam's bookshelf as she is a childminder


“The Magic Sunglasses" is exactly what I want my children to do.  To improve their self image and confidence and reach for the stars….” - Shamini Matthews, Head Teacher
