Peter Nimble and His Fantastic Eyes

From Jonathan Auxier, the New York Times bestselling author of The Night Gardener, comes the utterly beguiling tale of a 10-year-old blind orphan who has been schooled in a life of thievery.

“As delightful a magical story as readers . . . will hope to find.” —Wall Street Journal

One fateful afternoon, Peter steals a box from a mysterious traveling haberdasher—a box that contains three pairs of magical eyes. When he tries the first pair, he is instantly transported to a hidden island where he is presented with a special quest: to travel to the dangerous Vanished Kingdom and rescue a people in need.

Along with his loyal sidekick—a knight who has been turned into an unfortunate combination of horse and cat—and the magic eyes, Peter embarks on an unforgettable, swashbuckling adventure to discover his true destiny.

“The fast-paced, episodic story, accompanied by Auxier’s occasional pen-and-ink drawings, is inventive, unpredictable, and—like its hero—nimble.” —Publishers Weekly
