The Invention of Hugo Cabret

Dear class




I am reading a book called THE INVENTION of HUGO CABRET. I started reading it over track out. It is about a boy named Hugo who lives in the walls of a busy Paris train station. In the walls of a train station Hugo lived with his dad who bought a mechanical man. One night Hugo's dad was in the attic of a museum and the guard forgot Hugo's dad was in there and locked the door. It just so happens there was a fire that night and his dad didn't get out fast enough and the next morning all that was there was a pile of old junk. His dad was nowhere in sight. So in that case Hugo had to go and live with his uncle.One day his uncle went out for work and didn't come back that night. Hugo said to himself ''maybe he just got all tied up with his work and will come back tonight''. Hugo waited and waited all day and all night. No one returned. the next day Hugo went to fix all the clocks in the train station. Then he started to wonder off. Hugo came up to a toy booth that an old man owned. Hugo picked up a mechanical mouse and started to wind it up. The old man glanced at him and started to walk over. When the man approached the boy he said in a deep voice ''are you going to pay for that''. Hugo dropped the mechanic and tried to get away but the man's arm was faster. So Hugo had to fix it. the old man also took every thing that was in Hugo's pocket including his notebook. Hugo ran outside and took a stroll down the sidewalk. He walked passed the ruins from the museum. Hugo sees the mechanic and brings it back to his apartment.he eventually fixes it up. and finds a heart shaped key.

What I learned was that with a little bit of help from a friend you can do everything.
