If their vision is impaired – and even if it isn’t – they may enjoy Michael Page’s audiobook performance, which brings the voices of Sir Tode and the apes most vividly to life. It could also boost the spirits of children with disabilities. A lot of complications are packed into its plot, but at the bottom it is a simple, direct escape route from hum-drum to fun. It should appeal to all readers ready for the secret that kids are better than grown-ups, and anyone who likes fairy-tale endings that don’t come too easily. This is a delightfully quirky, funny adventure that places a touching emphasis on friendship, loyalty, courage, and the resiliency of children. But there’s no reckoning on a boy whose fingers are as good as his name, once he learns his true destiny. Between a night watch staffed with man-eating apes, a mine guarded by ferocious sea monsters, and a vast system of cogs and springs, King Incarnadine seems to have an unshakable hold on power. The riddle leads them into a dangerous conflict between thieves and birds, and then to a kingdom ruled by a usurper who has brainwashed all his adult subjects and enslaved the children. The professor sends Peter and Sir Tode off to solve a riddle in a bottle and, perhaps, save whoever sent it. Peter receives his marching orders from a strange old professor who dwells on the Troublesome Lake, so named because all the hopeless messages in bottles thrown into all the world’s seas eventually drift upon its shores. He is soon joined by an absurd but loyal knight who, for reasons too complex to go into here, has been transformed into a part-horse, part-kitten. Seamus until one night he stole a precious box of enchanted eyeballs that transported him on a magical adventure. He spent the better part of his childhood committing burglaries for a cruel master named Mr. He was raised by a family of cats and later learned to pick pockets and nick vegetables from market stalls. As a baby, he was found floating in a basket on the seashore, along with a raven that had apparently pecked his eyes out. It features a war between apes and ravens, an endless desert littered with shipwrecks, an island where all the seas in the world meet, and a blind boy whose keen senses of hearing, smell, and touch make him the greatest thief in the world.
#RAVEN PETER NIMBLE SIMON FULL#
It is a world full of such possibilities as winged zebras, talking fish, curses, transfigurations, disappearing islands, and clockwork weaponry. This triumphantly weird, whimsical story takes place in a world where certain children are brave, resourceful, clever, and wise, and most adults are pitiful, silly, and easily duped into serving as slaves of a fiendish villain.
