This book tells the story of Hugo, an orphan boy living in a Paris train station. He wants to fix a mysterious robot that his father left behind. The book combines beautiful pictures with an exciting story about adventure and early movies. It‘s a fun read that celebrates creativity and friendship.

British mariners had latitude figured pretty early on, but longitude flummoxed them to the point of shipwrecks and lost lives occurring because they just didn‘t know where they were. This book talks about the efforts to fix longitude and the machinations of the organization created when someone finally did so. If you‘re looking for an excellent, short narrative nonfiction book, look no further. #ReadYourEbooks

Got together with friends yesterday and received the best belated birthday present- a clock that has a quote from a book for each minute of the day. Love it so much!

Fantastic middle-grade book with beautiful illustrations and the audiobook is amazing. It deserved the award.

Other great book that month was Grapes of Wrath.

Andrew65 Looks great. I love The Grapes of Wrath. 10mo

This was a fun, creepy MG tale that reminded me a lot of Jonathan Auxier‘s The Night Gardener. A father & his two kids move into a creepy old mansion for the summer, tasked with fixing the old clock that generates power for the house. It‘s isolated, there‘s no electricity, they‘re surrounded by a sinister-looking forest that gradually inches closer and closer to the house…nothing could go wrong here, right?! This was a perfect October read for me.

I‘ve been wanting to read more middle grade and was interested in this one for how it combines art and story. An extremely beautiful book which ironically I don‘t have a photo of. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I adored “The Invention of Hugo Cabret” as a child, and I still found this story enchanting many years later. I loved the drawings sprinkled throughout the story, and the ending was even better than I remembered.
