KIDS READ Special Events The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick has been selected as the title for the second annual Kids Read community reading program. Kids Read was developed to run in conjunction with The Big Read. So, pick up a copy of this Caldecott Award winning novel. Through words and detailed drawings we learn about twelve-year-old Hugo, an orphan living and repairing clocks within the walls of a Paris train station in 1931, who meets a mysterious toy seller and his goddaughter, which jeopardizes his undercover life and his biggest secret.
