Everyone identifies on their own with movie characters and a 12-year-aged girl preferred a function design in movies who wore glasses just like her. Lowri’s wish came real right after the Disney film Encanto highlighted a character with eyeglasses.
According to a BBC report, she is the only person in her household who wears glasses. “I felt a little bit by itself and I did not experience like I was stunning more than enough,” Lowri was quoted as stating by the BBC.
So, the resident of Chilwell in Nottinghamshire in the United Kingdom wrote a letter to Disney three decades ago, inquiring them to create a character who wears specs.

“I wrote a letter to the Disney chief executive Robert Iger since I noticed that there had been no Disney princesses with glasses. The characters with eyeglasses ended up known as geeks and nerds. I don’t feel that is fair,” she was quoted as expressing by Optometry Now.
“I want other tiny girls all-around the entire world to have a part product with glasses. If there is a human being with glasses who they can glance up to then they will know that people with eyeglasses are stunning. It would make children considerably less anxious about what other people today imagine, like I was,” she extra.
The small girl’s letter attained the correct particular person and Jared Bush, the director of Encanto, mentioned her letter on Twitter. “3 years ago, Lowri wrote Disney asking for a heroine w/ glasses. I could not say that her desire was by now coming genuine! BUT enjoy the clip for the respond to to a huge question: Why doesn’t Julieta “fix” Mirabel or Agustín’s vision. It’s who they are & she would not want to improve it,” tweeted Bush.

Encanto is amazing, just like Lowri! I illustrated the book for Lowri and as soon as she told me her story I knew others would love it too! I’m so happy you made this little girls wish come true! ❤️

Whether she believes it or not, Lowri is a beautiful young woman – and smart and talented to boot. Hard to believe in the 21st century that people still tease those who wear glasses. I really don’t understand that. Yay for Lowrie and Mirabel.

There are other reasons Lowri loves Mirabel from Encanto. “I absolutely love Mirabel. She’s so funny and just such an amazing, brave character,” Lowri was quoted as saying by the BBC.
Lowri has now become an ambassador for a sight charity and written a book about a princess wearing glasses. “I wouldn’t really want to not wear glasses. I feel like my glasses are kind of a part of me,” she was quoted as saying by DisneyDining.com.
