Classics on the Rocks: The Invention of Hugo Cabret In-Person
Join us for a classics & mocktails book club! Each month we’ll read and discuss a classic novel, and learn how to make a mocktail to go along with it. Collect your copy of this month's read from the front desk of our Statesville branch, or read the ebook with your Libby App.
All supplies are provided free of charge by Iredell Friends of the Library.
This month we will be reading The Invention of Hugo Cabret, by Brian Selznick.
About the book:
Orphan, clock keeper, and thief, Hugo lives in the walls of a busy Paris train station, where his survival depends on secrets and anonymity. But when his world suddenly interlocks with an eccentric, bookish girl and a bitter old man who runs a toy booth in the station, Hugo's undercover life, and his most precious secret, are put in jeopardy. A cryptic drawing, a treasured notebook, a stolen key, a mechanical man, and a hidden message from Hugo's dead father form the backbone of this intricate, tender, and spellbinding mystery.
