The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick
4.0

Orphaned Hugo lives in a Paris train station, keeping the clocks and stealing food to survive. When the toymaker catches him stealing, Hugo becomes intertwined with the grumpy man and his lively goddaughter and finds his deepest secret is in danger. I downloaded the audiobook for us to listen to in the car during a quick day trip, and my family was hooked. We had a great time together discussing the book, and my kids thought it was the best part of our trip.
