The Invention of Hugo Cabret

 
 
This book is good because there is mysteries and action. There is a lot of chasing and stealing in the book. It is about this boy Hugo who is very smart and he can build pretty much anything. He built a robot called an Automaton. The Automaton can draw anything and can write up to two thousand eight hundred words. Hugo's father died in a fire and Hugo lives with this girl Isabella and here godfather was a famous filmmaker that Hugo was interested in . Hugo's dad's favorite movie was one  of his movies and Hugo found out that Goerges Melies was the original creater of the Automaton. The setting of the book is in a train station. The theme of the book is never give up because Hugo never gave up when he was making the Automaton. I recommend this book to people who like action and mystery. I could read this book over and over again. It was one of my favorite books.
