Miss Peregrin's home for peculiar children

This exciting fantasy story is composed based on a collection of old photographs obtained from flea markets and friends. Pretty creative approach and so is the story. Interesting is also that this is the debut book by the author Ransom Riggs.

This is very entertaining and exciting reading about these peculiar children - and so very well written, I am not surprised at all that one of my favourite film directors, Tim Burton, found this story so exciting that he decided to make a full feature motion picture based on this book.
Better credit to any debut author and the story is hard to get if one appreciates Tim Burton movies like Beetlejuice, Nigthmare before Cristmas (stop motion movie), Edward Scissorhands, Batman, Sleepy Hollow, Mars Attacks, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Corpse Bride (also stop motion movie) and lately Alice Through the Looking Glass - and many more, but now also Miss Peregrine's home for Peculiar Children.
I actually enjoyed Tim Burton's movie before I read the book, but I realise that you can actually enjoy both in either sequence as Tim Burton has invented his own climax of the story, but still very true to the characters in the book as well as their capabilities.

Enjoy!!!
