A Weird New World Coming: Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children

Translated into 40 languages, been a New York Times bestseller for more than two years, and been named one of the "100 Young Adult Books to Read in a Lifetime" by Amazon.com.

Recently released in late September, Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children has been a highly anticipated film. If you’ve already watched it, you know how hauntingly exciting the story is. Kudos to Tim Burton, the perfect director for the screen adaptation of this American dark fantasy! The book is itself perhaps many times more chilling thanks to American author Ransom Riggs’ vivid descriptions and strange vintage photos that will leave your imagination running wild! Despite its title, Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children, my dear readers, is definitely not bedtime reading material for little ones! 6


No doubt you are dying to know what the story is all about now, aren’t you? Riggs’ creatively unique book takes us into the world of Jacob “Jake” Portman who, before uncovering peculiardom, spent most of his ‘ordinary’ time listening to his grandfather Abraham “Abe” Portman’s stories of mysterious children. Soon a horrific tragedy besets Jake’s family and he journeys to a remote island off the coast of Wales where he discovers the crumbling ruins of Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children. Exploring the ruins, Jake realizes that the place was not just an orphanage but a refuge for young residents who possessed rather unusual abilities and - however impossible it may seem - they may still be alive! As the story unfolds, readers will discover along with protagonist Jake who Miss Peregrine is, what happened to the orphanage and its inhabitants, what makes them “peculiar,” what part Abe plays in all of it, how safety is merely an illusion with danger lurking in the shadows, who Jake himself really is and much, much more. Another aspect of great appeal for this book is how each character stands out and is so well developed that you find yourself becoming attached to each, wanting to know more about them and worried about what will happen to them. The vernacular pictures help you imagine the characters even better and make them seem so real. Picture books are no longer for little ones thanks to this literary feat from Ransom Riggs.

WIN!

Since hitting the bookstores, Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children has sold millions of copies, been translated into 40 languages, been a New York Times bestseller for more than two years, and been named one of the "100 Young Adult Books to Read in a Lifetime" by Amazon.com. And there are so many reasons why! There’s the book’s eerie cover, which only intrigues readers even more. And then, one extremely important fact is that Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children is a true literary innovation Riggs builds his story around genuinely vintage photographs. That’s right! These pictures were not created especially for the book but actually come from the private archives of collectors listed by Riggs. These vernacular photos of real people and real objects that are scattered throughout the book add exciting realism to the narrative and are themselves extraordinary art pieces. And it is how Riggs weaves a story based on these odd pictures that keeps readers in a trance. Once you begin to read the enthralling story and see its eccentric pictures, you simply won’t be able to put the book down.

non-fiction

One year after the rise of the Berlin Wall, daring young West Germans risked prison, torture and death to liberate East Berliners by digging tunnels under the Wall. Racing to be the first to film the escapes, two television networks funded separate tunnels. US President Kennedy and his administration, wary of possibly raised tensions and military confrontation with the Soviets, maneuvered to quash both documentaries. Capturing everyday Berliners’ hopes and fears, the secret police’s chilling reach, and Cold War tensions, The Tunnels is breaking history with themes still reverberating today.

The solutions aren't speculative: they've been tried and work. The Fix is a powerful case for optimism offering practical advice in a time of bad news.

Bookmonster Jenni knows it!

Able to accommodate a wide range of book sizes, this uniquely designed, cuddly BookMonster is more than just a book stand. It can also be used with eReaders, tablets, magazines or a notepad. It’s perfect for encouraging reading and even improves posture and can also be used for watching movies or playing games. Plus if it’s not being used, it makes a great soft toy. Made from the highest quality faux suede, Thinking Gifts’ BookMonster is certified for safety, can easily be popped in the washing machine for cleaning and will retain its soft appeal.

Line Markers Line Marker is another great reading gift idea from Thinking Gifts. Available in a variety of designs including ribbons, food, flip flops, butterflies, critters and pencils, these clever magnetic bookmarks make a difference. Each equipped with an intentionally positioned slit, the bookmark will help you quickly identify the last line you were at when you finished reading and whether you were on the right or left-hand side of the page. Because it’s magnetic, it’ll grip the page firmly so you won’t have to worry about it slipping out of place or leaving any trace or mark when it’s removed.

These are definitely items that will tickle your reading and shopping impulses. If you can’t decide on which one, why not get them all! We look forward to seeing you in our stores and to your and others’ reading being even more enjoyable with these great items!
