## Description

Don't miss Selznick's other novels in words and pictures, The Invention of Hugo Cabret and Wonderstruck , which together with The Marvels , form an extraordinary thematic trilogy! A breathtaking new voyage from Caldecott Medalist Brian Selznick. Two stand-alone stories--the first in nearly 400 pages of continuous pictures, the second in prose--create a beguiling narrative puzzle.The journey begins at sea in 1766, with a boy named Billy Marvel. After surviving a shipwreck, he finds work in a London theatre. There, his family flourishes for generations as brilliant actors until 1900, when young Leontes Marvel is banished from the stage.Nearly a century later, runaway Joseph Jervis seeks refuge with an uncle in London. Albert Nightingale's strange, beautiful house, with its mysterious portraits and ghostly presences, captivates Joseph and leads him on a search for clues about the house, his family, and the past.A gripping adventure and an intriguing invitation to decipher how the two stories connect, The Marvels is a loving tribute to the power of story from an artist at the vanguard of creative innovation.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best book for ages.
*by M***W on 12 January 2018*

I discovered this wonderful book by accident. I saw it in a school library and commented that a book that long was unlikely to attract many readers. The librarian simply said, "Open it" I was utterly amazed. It is one of the most beautiful picture stories I have ever come across. Yet the best was yet to come as the written part of the story is completely captivating and emotionally engaging. I shut myself away and did not stop reading until I had finished. The revelation at the back of the book has since led, via a gift from the first friend for whom I bought a copy, to a magical visit to 18 Folgate Street. Read the book to find out all about this. If you are disappointed, give your copy to a school library!
