The Window Tulip - "how Willem and his rainbow tulip help his grandfather get spectacles".
That's all I can find, but given the name, the Dutch/Flemish outfits, and the era, I'm suspicious that this is a Tulipomania title (maybe Willem's extra special tulip is sold off to pay for the glasses? Or Willem's grandfather is finally convinced he needs to buy glasses in order to fully appreciate the beauty of a special cultivar?). :)
