Spectacles

Her name is Iris Fogel, and she can see things other people can't. For example, one day a fire-breathing dragon came up the walk. And another day there was a giant pygmy nuthatch on the lawn. Of course, they did turn out to be Great-aunt Fanny and Chester Filbert.

That's why Iris's mother took her to a blue elephant who made it possible (over Iris's objections) for her to see things just as other people did. Now Iris can see things not one but two ways. Which has all kinds of advantages.
