![]() OMG I loved him so much!! The narrator's voice for him was perfect and it made me laugh! Sir Tode had the best one-liners, hands down. It was the perfect narration because, although he could not see, he described things based on how they felt or sounded or tasted, and it really added so much to who he was.The other side characters were also excellent. He may have elements of the character we all want to read about, but he's his own person - totally a unique creation. He may look like one on the outside, but inside he has courage and love and all the capacity for adventure that an avid reader could every hope for. It's just that good.CHARACTER NOTES -Peter Nimble is no ordinary boy. Inspiration is still abundant when I think of this story. It left only the fondest memories of the story and the most beautiful ideas in my head. It was perfect.I read this book nearly a year ago (or listened to it via audio, I should say), and I honestly have no complaints about it at all. It had a fantastical element to it that really went along with the theme of the book. Completely and utterly gripping and beautiful and it just flowed so well. I thought it would be your average MG novel, but it was so, so SO much more. And what is in the box, the one the strange man was showcasing? It might hold the answer to all of Peter's questions.MY THOUGHTS -I was so shocked and surprised by the mastery of this book. He has a gift for thievery, and that's all he's ever done.But when a strange man appears in town, showcasing something marvelous, and blackmails Peter into helping him, Peter finds himself whisked away on the greatest adventure of his life. He is light on his feet and smart with his fingers. He steals from pockets, purses, and shops. ![]() Peter Nimble and His Fantastic Eyes by Jonathan AuxierPages: 381Release Date: August 1st, 2011Date Read: 2012, April 9th - May 8thReceived: Audiobook from libraryRating: 5/5 starsRecommended to: 10+SUMMARY -Peter Nimble is nothing but a blind thief.
