The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick

     The Invention of Hugo Cabret is an amazing book about an orphan, Hugo, trying to survive in a Paris train station in the late nineteenth century. I would definitely suggest The Invention of Hugo Cabret to all; it has great characters and good descriptions that will have you wanting more. It is partly made up of charcoal drawings that help to really paint a picture in your head.

     Everything in Hugo’s world rotates around the automaton he found, but when the instructions to fix it are taken from him, his world is turned upside down, like the moving pictures he so loves.

     The Invention of Hugo Cabret is a must read, so you won’t be regretting it if you do, as it is a wonderful and heartwarming book.

The Invention of Hugo Cabret

The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick is a book that mostly tell its story with pictures. It's about a boy named Hugo, who lives in a train station, taking over the job of his dead uncle. He steals toys from a toy booth using the spare parts for a machine his father started, "the mechanical man," that he wants to finish. I recommend this book for people who like adventure and a tad bit of mystery in great books, like The Invention of Hugo Cabret.
