Are you hooked?


Our class started a book study today on The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brain Selznick. Thanks to our FABULOUS media specialists, Mrs. Anderson and Mrs. Gibson, for having faith in my crazy ideas and purchasing a class set of beautiful hardback books for us to get lost in. We are really enjoying the author's words and artwork already. We hope to finish it this week and head to the newly released movie soon!

Comment on what you think it would be like to live alone in a train station at Hugo's age.

That's like, the best book EVER!! (apart from the Harry Potter books)

If I lived alone in a train station.... *thinks hard* it would be horrific at first, but then I'd prob get used 2 it. It would be like a nightmare living without my mom or dad tho (and living with that crappy uncle doesn't count)I don't know how to fix stuff... so I'd be DOOMED!!

Clare Bear said...

I read this in first grade and absoulutely ADOOOORRRRED it. I always thought that it must be extremely lonely, and I probably would've rather gone to a foster home than live there alone in the clock. But keep reading, the book really has a nice ending.

Mrs. Whitaker is shutting the comment section off if you all don't stop the silliness pronto! The question was about Hugo and one comment is all you need. You have one more chance. Got it?

adrianaej21 said...

sorry Mrs. Whitaker.

Clare said...

Mrs.Whitaker's right y'all you need yo STOP PUTTING RANDOM COMMENTS! It's annoying. This is for commenting about the book, and educational PURPOSE.
