The Invention of Hugo Cabret,by Brian Selzniek,is a novel like no other.There are pages of exciting events and then suddenly wait! A picture with tiny details,then a big picture that takes up the whole page--and the next page,and the next page,and the next! The pictures are actually telling the story.It’s like a book and a movie all in one.

    I recently had the opportunity to talk with Selzniek about his unique novel.I wanted to know just how he came up with the concept of writing a novel that reads like a picture book.

“Because the book is so much about movies and the history of cinema,I also wanted to figure

out how to make a book that is also 1ike a movie,”said Selzniek.

   Writing and illustrating(作插图)the book was a long and hard process,Selzniek said.One of the challenges was figuring not what the story was really about and what happened to the main character,Hugo.Selzniek also had to figure out how to make the narrative and the pictures work together to tell the story.

  Selzniek has actually spent most of his career as an illustrator and really considers himself more of an artist than a writer.‘‘I’ve always drawn,ever since I was a little kid.I was encouraged to draw,and so that’s what I feel most comfortable with,”he said.

    He still enjoys many of the things he liked as a kid.That’s why it's not so hard for him to think about what kids would like to read in a book.In fact,sometimes he feels like a kid himself.

    But sometimes figuring out what was going to happen in the story was not easy,he told me.He had no idea what the story was going to be about when he started writing.He didn’t know if it was going to be sad,adventurous,or exciting.Selzniek turned to friends for advice on the book.For now,Selzniek doesn’t plan on writing a sequel(续篇)to the book,but he warns,“You can never say never.”
