The Invention of Hugo Cabret
Brian Selznick
Review
Athina Clarke
This intriguing story of Hugo Cabret – an orphan and timekeeper secretly living within the walls of a busy Paris train station – is a mystery in many ways. Children will love the book’s unusual story with its dramatic illustrations, yet the novel’s form – a combination of story, wordless picture book and silent movie – defies description. You must both see it and read it. It’s a very strange and wonderful book of a strange yet wonderful story.
Highly recommended for boys and girls ages 9+.
