The Indian in the Cupboard by LYNNE REID BANKS
Omri was woken by a tapping sound coming from his cupboard, and when he opened the door his plastic Red Indian had gone. Then Omri saw him, crouched in the darkest corner of the cupboard, brandishing a tiny knife. The Indian was alive! 1:Birthday Presents
