展開一場意想不到的救援行動大作戰!
 
  約翰內斯是一隻自由自在的狗,他生活在靠海的城市公園裡。他的工作是當「眼睛」,隨時觀察公園裡發生的大小事情,然後向三隻野牛長老回報。約翰內斯的朋友海鷗、浣熊、松鼠和鵜鶘也會一起幫忙,他們觀察公園裡的人類和動物,確保可以維持這裡的平衡秩序。
 
  然而改變正逐漸逼近,越來越多人類、遊客來到這座公園,新的建築物拔地而起,這座建築充滿了混亂的矩形,讓約翰內斯看得著迷,居然因此被抓!幸好朋友們趕來幫忙,在一次戲劇性的救援行動之後,約翰內斯終於可以回家了。這次的經驗讓他想到一個主意,他決心從圍欄裡解救三隻野牛長老!約翰內斯該怎麼做才能完成這個不可能的任務?
 
  由國家圖書獎獲獎作者戴夫.艾格斯(Dave Eggers)撰寫,搭配凱迪克榮譽獎得主Shawn Harris繪製的精美插圖,從狗狗約翰內斯第一人稱講述的故事有血有肉,約翰內斯展現的的友情、忠誠和對崇高目標的努力,即使計畫在最後一刻有了變化,仍讓他成為了一個值得敬佩的角色。

  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. Mysterious rectangles are hypnotising Johannes, the humans are erecting a strange new building, and an entirely new kind of animal has arrived in the park. 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.
