I fear that this book was probably more suitable for younger students than the ones I teach and I actually felt regret that my own children weren't young enough to have been into this. It's really well written and whilst it wasn't for me, I have recommended it to a couple of friends with younger classes and they've all thought it was great. Eggers is a phenomenal writer, so this was to expected and Harris's tweaked art pieces compliment the words well.

The Eyes and the Impossible is Dave Eggers’ best book yet.
We follow Johannes. He is a free dog inhabiting a park with other animals. And these animals are animals - not people, not symbols. and not real life animals,
The park has an equilibrium and each animal or group of animals have duties to perform.
The equilibrium is soon shattered and Johannes keeps us engaged by…running (his observations, fights with other animals, bonds with them).
The plot, characterisation, length, prose and art 5/5 stars.
It is a terrific idea to have added Johannes to the beautiful landscape paintings.
I am looking forward to sharing this with my child, and recommend it to everyone.
It will make a great gift too.
