The Invention of Hugo Cabret

This book tells the story of Hugo Cabret, an apprentice of the city's Timekeeper. Every morning after the day the Timekeeper disappeared Hugo would check the clocks to keep the right time. That is, until he found the automaton. He found the machine amongst the rubble of the museum that had burnt down. Being good with his hands, he had tried to fix it with his father's notbeook (that had the instructions to fix the automaton) and mechanical parts that he stole from the toy booth outside the station. Things got complicated when he was caught and had the notebook taken from him by the toy booth owner. From then on, his mission was to try and get back his notebook while also trying to fix the automaton. But like a good plot, this story doesn't go as smoothly as that....
