This story is about an orphanage boy named Hugo Cabret whose father died in a fire and left a broken automaton which Hugo thinks could save his life. Hugo lives in a train station. One day, he tries to steal a toy mouse and the shop owner caught him and took his notebook full of pictures of his automaton his father drew. Now, Hugo has no way to fix the automaton. Hugo made many attempts of trying to get his notebook but he couldn’t get it back. As time passed, Hugo finally fixed the automaton without his notebook and stole a key from Isabelle that perfectly fits inside the automaton and the automation drew a picture. If you want to know what the automaton drew and if the automaton actually saved Hugo’s life, read The Invention of Hugo Cabret.
