The Invention Of Hugo Cabret By Brian Selznick


This book is about a kid named Hugo Cabret who's father spent his whole life ting to fix a machine that writes. After he died it was Hugo's job to fix it. Now when his father tried to fix it he made a notebook that said how to fix it because he could fix it except he didn't work while he wrote. So Hugo has been stealing toys for parts from George Melies who runs a toy store. One day George catches Hugo and steals his notebook and says he will go home and burn it, and when George comes back the next day with ashes Hugo isn't so sure it is really gone and with the help of a new friend Hugo just might get it back.

Percy Jackson: The Lightning Thief movie


The movie of Percy Jackson was based on the book but had a entirely different story line. In this movie instead of getting pearls automatically from Poseidon they had to search for them. I personally think that if you have read the book don't be surprised if you come out of the theater saying "that was absolutely, positively, nothing like the book" When I saw it I had a Friend with me who had also read the books and she agreed with me. But if you hadn't read the books then I find it an awesome movie!
