Beautiful and mysterious, this lovingly crafted book may be a little too much of the same as his other book, but it still is absolutely enjoyable. I love the flipping back and forth between written words and the black and white drawings. I also thought that using images to emphasize the silence of the deaf was a well used tool. ( ) In the 1970s, a boy goes in search of his father in New York City after his mother dies. In the 1920s, a deaf girl runs away from home to New York City to escape her unhappy home life. By the end, the two stories are intertwined. Like [b:Hugo Cabret|9673436|The Invention of Hugo Cabret|Brian Selznick|http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51VcEWaqKWL._SL75_.jpg|527941], the story's told in both prose and pictures. The mystery of Ben's father combined with the mystery of how his story will meet up with Rose's really drives the book. I actually raced through the book, so I failed to notice a lot of the neat details in the illustrations that reveal themselves on closer inspection.
The two stories come together at the climax of the book, which manages to incorporate an impressive array of heartfelt issues: everything from education for the deaf to friendship, love of collecting, conservation, memories and dioramas. As I turned the pages my heart was well and truly warmed in that way beloved of a certain type of American children's literature – earnest, life affirming, educational, and impossible to dislike. Reaching the end I leafed back through the 460 pages of Wonderstruck, admiring the pictures, all thoughts of my daughter now banished. Honestly, Brian, I do know how you can be bothered.

Ben's story is told in words; Rose's in pictures. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
