Book of the Month Club – The Invention of Hugo Cabret

Posted by Cindy on November 21, 2008

We take part in a Book of the Month Club (which is actually a book every two months) that met last week to discuss The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick.  My children loved this book!

Mrs. Lisa had prepared some very fun activities to go along with the invention – drama – secrecy theme of the book.

Invisible ink messages.

Mask making.

Candy and toothpick inventions.

Next up – The Twenty-One Balloons PMC (Puffin Modern Classics) by William Pene du Bois!

    • Hi! Yes, I’m loving your new blog! Very cool! What a wonderful gift your house guest gave you.

      We will be having a “Book Explorers Club” for the next semester at our co-op for Hannah’s grade level. I know they will be doing things similar to this. I am so excited!

      Love Ya, Melissa

      • My daughter and I read Hugo Cabret a few months ago and LOVED it! We might have to try “Balloons”, too!

        • 21 Balloons is one of our favorite all-time books…I think we read it out loud two times when the boys were little.

          Have fun!
