The Invention of Hugo Cabret
Scholastic, New York, 2007. Hard Cover. Book Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. First Edition. It is 1931, and twelve-year-old Hugo Cabret, the orphaned son of a clockmaker, lives in secret in a forgotten room in the Paris train station so the authorities won’t realize he is now on his own. He is terrified of being caught and sent away, but his greatest secret is the automaton his beloved father discovered in a museum attic — a mechanical man which, when fixed properly, will write a secret message. Caldecott Honor artist Brian Selznick creates a fascinating story of intertwining mysteries, secrets, and revelations told partly through prose and partly through pages of intricate, wordless black-and white drawings.
