Novel
The invention of Hugo Cabret
Brian Selznick
Scholastic
2007
This story is about an orphan who starts repairing a robot believing it will give him a purpose in life.
1931 in Paris, France.
The main characters are Hugo Cabret and Isabelle
I like this novel because it has a cool story line.
Hugo is a very angsty and nervous young boy but he has his mind set one one thing. Fixing the automaton. And hes so driven that he would do anything to achieve it. I mean he steals to still live so stealing is a normal everyday thing. Hes been fixing the kinks and rough patches in it but then a new obstacle makes itself known. And that is a young girl and her surrogate god father that own the toy shop in the train station.
