Brian Selznick Books

This stunning hybrid of novel and picture book tells the story of Hugo, a boy living alone in a Paris train station, whose circumstances lead him on a journey of clocks, film, discovery and connection.

It’s a story that also takes the reader on a journey through the streets of Paris and teaches about emotions, self-discovery, and the magic of storytelling itself.

Inventive, cinematic, mysterious, moving and timeless.
