Analysis of The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick

First of all, I would like to say I was a little hesitant when I chose this book. The phrase "I can not judge a book through the cover" is certainly true for this book. When I saw the size of the book I thought I could not read the book within 10 days. The cover shows the hot air balloon I think. The first connection with this book came from the cover image. I imagined the image of the wizard of Oz before opening the first page. When I read the book and saw that spectacular illustration, I was fascinated by the story and I felt it difficult to place the book.

With the invention of Hugo Cabret (Scholastic, 12.9), American illustrator and author Brian Selznick seems to have invented a new book. It's both picture books, graphic novels, burning high-quality threads, and fascinating celebrations in the early days of the movie. All black and white. Selznick has always been fascinated by the movies. When he was a child in New Jersey (now 41 years old), when his last name is displayed on the screen he will shine proudly - the producer of King Kong, along with the legendary wind, is his first grandfather's cousin , And "Whenever you see this name, you are always happy and connected to the world."

In the invention of Hugo Cabret, the author was Brian Selznick, a 12-year-old boy who lived in Paris in 1931. Hugo 's parents died, he stayed under the care of his uncle, and he operated a clock station on the train. Hugo and his uncle lived in a secret apartment concealed behind an employee who operated the station many years ago. When Hugo's uncle began to make himself alone for hours, Hugo should take care of all her watches himself. When Hugo 's uncle disappeared completely, Hugo must live secretly and have to do the work of his uncle, so he will not be taken to an orphanage.
