I saw the movie Hugo (directed by Martin Scorsese) right before the New Year. Let me back track, and let you know that usually I am NOT a fan of Oscar movies. If I'm being honest, I find them to be boring. However, this year has seemed to bring quite a few more exceptions than normal. Among those are: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 , The Help , and Hugo. I fell in love with Hugo . I thought it so beautifully done. The music, the characters, the story. I found myself crying even at points that wouldn't necessarily make you cry. I honestly, didn't know the movie was based on a book; but when I found out at the end, I knew I had to read it. The winner of the Children's Caldecott Award, The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick is nothing like anything I've ever read. Normally, when I read I imagine the story that I am reading unfolding in my head like a movie; but with The Invention of Hugo Cabret I didn't have to imagine. T
