I distinctly remember The Ear, the Eye and the Arm as being one of my favorite books from childhood. This unique tale of both fantasy and sci-fi futuristic accounts, encourages the readers imagination while offering a very intriguing and fun to read tale. I would definitely recommend this book for young adults and adults alike.
