One fateful afternoon, he steals a box from a mysterious traveling haberdasher—a box that contains three pairs of magical eyes. When he tries the first pair, he is instantly transported to a hidden island where he is presented with a special quest: to travel to the dangerous Vanished Kingdom and rescue a people in need.

Answer:
Ten-year-old orphan Peter Nimble is a gifted thief d also blind. After five years thieving for nasty beggarmonger Mr. Seamus, he longs to escape. Opportunity arrives when Peter pilfers a mysterious box containing three pairs of eyes. Inserting the first pair, he is magically transported to Professor Cake's island home, where Peter's given a choice: return to his former life or find a vanished kingdom and save those in trouble. Though doubtful, Peter, along with knight Sir Tode (cursed to be part cat, part horse), embarks upon a quest fraught with dangers, unexpected enemies, and allies, where they'll be tested and tried before ultimately realizing Peter's destiny. Evoking Dickens and Dahl, this fantasy-adventure has a classic-storytelling flavor, from archaic prose lightened with droll touches diversely drawn human and animal characters, including underground-rebel Princess Peg, tyrant King Incarnadine, and brave raven Simon. Despite some predictability and occasionally glib narrator commentary, readers will enjoy the unique Peter, whose adventures, from facing and overcoming hardships to discovering the true meaning of heroism, make for an absorbing debut.
