Wonderstruck by Brian Selznick


Relates the stories of twelve-year-old Ben, who loses his mother and his hearing in a short time frame and decides to leave his Minnesota home in 1977 to seek the father he has never known in New York City; and Rose, who lives with her father but feels compelled to search for what is missing in her life. Ben's story is told in words; Rose's in pictures.

    I did not like the book because there was not enought action for me. The only action was when Ben ran away from his aunt and uncle and went to New York and met his Grandma. **
