TK-I love this book because the reader connect with Hugo. The book is very detailed. The pictures act like you are with them, so that you can better understand what Hugo is feeling and doing. 

AK-It's almost my favorite book because the author describes the scenes very well.

AC-I like this book because the author describes everything perfectly, and there are a lot of pictures.
