Books like The Ear, the Eye, and the Arm

General Matsika's children steal out of the house on a forbidden adventure--and disappear.

The children must avoid the evils of the past, the technology of the future, and a motley assortment of criminals in order to return home safely. 1995 Newbery Honor Book; ALA Notable Book; ALA Best Book for Young Adults.
