Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ramson Riggs

Fans of fiction, fantasy, and mysteries will like Miss Peregrine's Home for Extraordinary Children because it is a captivating and attractive book. Everyone who enjoys an adventure with developed characters and an exciting plot must read this.

The relationship between Miss Peregrine and Jacob is nicely developed, bringing emotional depth to the novel, and the plot moves along at a good speed. The book's old photographs make the narrative distinct and spooky, making it a visual joy for readers. A small problem in the book is that the ending felt rushed and sudden, leaving some loose ends. The overall enjoyment of the story is unaffected by this, however, this does not affect the fun of the whole story. (Esther. Grade 8)

The title of this book is 'Miss Peregrine's home for Peculiar Children' by Ransom Riggs and it is amazing! This book is about a boy who goes to an island and finds a home with very unique children. I could not put this book down. I even read 100 pages in one day - the author interprets emotions and sets an uneasy tone in the story very well. The suspense made me keep reading for long periods of time. This book did not have very hard vocabulary in my personal opinion. I definitely recommend this book to anyone, especially if you like paranormal and mystery books. The author uses detailed adjectives and accurate dialogue, they make sure the things the characters say are realistic. (Mandalay. Grade 7)

Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, by Ransom Riggs, is an adventure book about a boy (Jacob) crossing an ocean to make the dead's grandfather's last word. On his journey, he discovers a very peculiar school when he asks what happened to an abandoned place, and in it, there are some very peculiar/weird people. Among these is a girl who can create fire, an invisible boy, and much more, and the school headmistress (miss peregrine) who is as strict and very strange. This book can be a little creepy for younger kids I would not recommend it for young kids. The vocabulary is easy to understand so it is fun to read once you have read the first chapter or so, the book is full of old photos that the author collected from various places and people. Most of them are real, but some of them have been retouched to fit the story, I would recommend this to anyone who loves action and a bit of mystery. (Elsa. Grade 7)

The book is full of old photos that the author collected from various places and people. Some of them have been ever so slightly retouched to fit the story line but overall is it a very creative way to immerse the reader into the story.
