The Invention of Hugo Cabret 197 reviews Brian Selznick
Scholastic Press, 2007
Wonderfully suspenseful for the whole family
+ Hugo Cabret
Picked this up recently by chance. What a fantastic find! The pencil drawings are warm and provide a lovely touch to an otherwise entirely self-supporting story. Whenever we had to put it down, I don't know who was more disappointed (and excited to get back to it) - my daughters, ages 6 and 8, or ...

A Wrinkle in Time 964 reviews Madeleine L'Engle
Farrar, Straus and Giroux (BYR), 1962
The battle between good and evil.
I have often heard people comment about how good this book is, but I've never taken the time to read it before now. I can't say that I was mislead.

The plot was just entrancing... who else ever thought of being able to read yourself into a book? Certainly many people wished they could, but I don't know of anyone else who has written about it. ...
