Ten-year-old Peter Fortune has a knack for winding up in the most unlikely of situations: terrorized and held at bay by a doll in his sister's collection, climbing inside the skin of William, the family cat, or disappearing altogether with the help of vanishing cream, just to name a few. Peter's vivid imagination is at the bottom of it all in this unusual novel that invites readers to suspend disbelief and explore the wonder of it all. Anthony Browne's full-page black-and-white drawings provide an intriguing balance to the highly colorful workings of Peter's mind while capturing the mood - foreboding, warm, frightening - of each of Peter's adventures. (Ages 10-12)
