Owen and I enjoyed the book some years ago; we too were mesmerized by the unique story and format. And, in my view, it's rare to encounter writing in a children’s book that can stand shoulder-to-shoulder with exquisite illustration. We saw the film adaption—Hugo—on opening weekend and it did not disappoint. My first 3D since Jaws 3, I think, and one has to nod Scorcese for fully embracing the book’s nuanced material while adding just enough of his own passion (motion picture history) to launch the narrative to new heights.

You're right about this book- truly amazing and well-deserving of the Caldecott. This is a magical, ground-breaking book format, but also all the makings for an excellent Martin Scorcese film. I loved seeing it; and I opted to see it in 2D, thinking it wouldn't need gimmicks and flash, although some of my family saw 3D and loved it equally well. Kudos for keeping the art of the book, and film, alive! Thanks for writing about it! Hooray for Brian Selznick, my very talented RISD classmate!
