The Eyes and the Impossible by Dave Eggers
A New York Times bestseller Winner of the Newbery Medal 'This book is a magic trick' Jon Klassen Johannes is a free dog, a fast dog – such a fast dog! He lives in an urban park by the sea, and every day, he runs through the park, seeing all, missing nothing, and reporting what he sees to the park’s three ancient Bison, the Keepers of the Equilibrium. But the Equilibrium has been disrupted. Johannes must run faster, see better, and ultimately do more than run and see – he must liberate those he loves. A story about friendship, beauty, liberation, and running very, very fast, The Eyes & the Impossible will make readers of all ages see the world around them in a wholly new way.
"This book is a magic trickThe kind of magic trick where you want to know how to do it so you can also write a book this good" -- Jon Klassen
