The Invention Of Hugo Cabret

Hugo lives in the walls of a Paris train station, where his survival depends on being anonymous. But when his life suddenly collides with an eccentric girl and the owner of a small toy booth in the train station, Hugo’s secret live, and his most precious secret, are put in danger. A strange drawing, a treasured notebook, a stolen key, a mechanical man, and a hidden message all come together.
I liked a lot this book because it was a little bit of mystery but addictive at the same time. It’s easy to read and easy to understand, there’s not much difficult vocabulary and you have lovely illustrations to help you understand. These lovely illustrations take about half of the book so even if you find it really thick, it will take just two or three afternoons to read.

Ruby Holler by Sharon Creech

The "trouble twins", Dallas and Florida, are living in The Boxton Creek Home, an orphanage run by Mr. and Mrs. Trepid. The Trepids are strict and “putrid”, and Dallas and Florida are punished more than any other children for breaking the rules of the house. They are thirteen years old and in all of this time the twins have been adopted many times, invariably by incomprehensive and abusive adults who return them to the orphanage. One day, an old couple adopts the twins for a summer, they live in Ruby Holler. Their names are Tiller and Sairy. They want them as companions for their separate vacations: Florida for Tiller's boat trip down the Rutabago River; Dallas for Sairy's bird expedition to the island of Kangadoon. This will be the first time either of the couples have been separated.
I liked this book because it was strange the way the author tells the story, I think this book is not made for people who like fantasy or realistics books because, in my opinion, this book was made for everyone. It is an enjoyable and pleasant book to read whenever you have time.
