The Eyes & the Impossible by Dave Eggers
5.0

The Eyes and the Impossible is the 2024 Newbery Medal winner, and it's a story told with a unique voice. Written in a way that mimics how a child might speak—especially when it comes to numbers like: age, miles, and time—it offers a refreshing and whimsical perspective. The narrative captures a sense of wonder and innocence while tackling deep themes, making it both accessible and meaningful for young readers and adults alike. It's a story that invites readers into a world full of imagination, where even the simplest things can feel extraordinary.
