I read this book, Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children, several months ago and just loved it. It’s one of those stories that really grips you and you are trying to figure out what’s going on and can’t wait to see what happens next. I’m thrilled that it’s been made into a movie that’s scheduled for release on September 30!
From visionary director Tim Burton, and based upon the best-selling novel, comes an unforgettable motion picture experience. When Jake discovers clues to a mystery that spans alternate realities and times, he uncovers a secret refuge known as Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children. As he learns about the residents and their unusual abilities, Jake realizes that safety is an illusion, and danger lurks in the form of powerful, hidden enemies. Jake must figure out who is real, who can be trusted, and who he really is.
I think this poster is my favorite. Wow! The movie stars Eva Green, Asa Butterfield, Chris O’Dowd, Ella Purnell, Allison Janney, Rupert Everett, Terence Stamp, with Judi Dench and Samuel L. Jackson. Directed by Tim Burton, you know it’s going to be amazing. The book is a little dark and the movie is rated PG-13 so use your best judgement when deciding to take your kids.
