What’s not to like about that? Recommended Age Range: 8+ Warnings: None. I can definitely see this book delighting younger readers-it’s non-stop fun with some cool magical concepts and a plucky young hero and his odd sidekick.

Though Peter was the hero, I felt the true stars of the show were the side characters. I can’t say this book blew me away, but I appreciated the narrator, Auxier’s voice apart from that, and most of the characters. But it’s clear he had a blast writing this book, and a lot of the side characters have very memorable voices, like Frederick the dogfish, and some of the detail and description were light and humorous as well. My one complaint was how much of the plot hinged on adults being incompetent and dumber than children, but at least Auxier kind of explains that in a decent way. Auxier has the sort of humor that I like to see, since it elevates mediocre to better-than-average, which is precisely the case here. The plot had an interesting concept and I enjoyed the world and characters. Other than that, the book as a whole was okay. He revealed just enough to get the reader to say, “Oh, you sly dog,” but not enough that everything felt spoiled. From sly hints about big plot reveals to calm descriptions of otherwise strange and fantastic concepts, the narrator became a character in his own right. Forget Peter, forget Peg, forget Sir Tode…the narrator was the real star of the show. Rating: 3/5 My favorite part of Peter Nimble was the extremely clever and cheeky narration. Peter Nimble and His Fantastic Eyes, by Jonathan Auxier, was published in 2011 by Amulet.
