The Invention of Hugo Cabret
The Invention of Hugo Cabret was written in 2007 by Brian Selznick. In 2008 the third grade Brainwaves made a green screen video of Hugo Cabaret. In 2011, this year's second grade Brainwaves have produced a stop-motion animation of the same book.
The Invention of Hugo Cabret was award the Caldecott Medal as the best picture book of the year, even though more than half of it's 500 pages are text. Academy Award winning film maker Martin Scorsese has made a 3D movie called Hugo. It opens November 23, 2011. We have posted both our 2008 and 2011 videos here.

Dear Brainwaves,
You read so much! You have read a lot of books and I like all videos you've made. My students often watch them and listen to your stories.
Good luck in reading more books!
