Wonderstruck

From the creator of the Caldecott Medal winner The Invention of Hugo Cabret comes another breathtaking tour de force.

Ever since his mom died, Ben feels lost.

At home with her father, Rose feels alone.

He is searching for someone, but he is not sure who.

She is searching for something, but she is not sure what.

When he finds a mysterious clue hidden in his mom's room.

When a tempting opportunity presents itself Ben risks everything.

Rose risks everything.

To find what's missing.

Set fifty years apart, these two separate stories-Ben's told in words and Rose's in pictures-weave back and forth with mesmerizing symmetry. How they ultimately intertwine will surprise you, challenge you, and leave you breathless with wonder.

With over 460 pages of original drawings and playing with the form he invented in his trailblazing debut novel, The Invention of Hugo Cabret, Brian Selznick once again sails into uncharted territory and takes readers on an awe-inspiring journey. Rich, complex, affecting and beautiful, Wonderstruck is a stunning achievement from a uniquely gifted artist and visionary.
