Text to World Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children
The book that I'm reading is Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs. It is about a sixteen year old boy named Jacob Portman who doesn't know just how peculiar he is. Jacob is exploring a remote island off the coast of Wales, where he discovers the beat down, old and abandoned home of Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. As Jacob explores the peeling hallways and the decaying bedrooms, he sees now that it has become clear that the children his grandfather told him in his stories that the children were more than just peculiar, they may have been dangerous.
My book connects to the real world because the peculiar kids aren't accepted by everyone and everyone thinks that they are weird or creepy but really they are just kids who are different and different isn't always a bad thing. Kids from all around the world just want to fit in and especially at school, kids just want to be accepted for who they are and don't want to have to change just because somebody wants you to. In my book a little girl was scared and embarrassed to show her peculiarity in front of Jacob since they just met. Jacob was fascinated and amazed on what she could do, he wasn't scared and he told her to be herself and don't be embarrassed by who you are.
I love how the author makes me want to read more and how every chapter is something new! I began to think about each individual peculiar kid and realized that every peculiarity suits the person and really tells you what kind of person they are. I felt sad when Jacob reminded Emma of Abe Portman ( Jacobs grandfather) and Emma started to cry and Emma crying reminded Jacob of all the times he doubted his grandfathers stories about Miss Peregrine's home and started to feel bad about doubting him. The message of this book is to trust people, trust is showed through out the book for example when Emma and Jacob first met Emma thought that Jacob was a monster trying to kill Miss Peregrine's kids but Jacob told her he was Abe Portman grandson and Emma had to learn to trust him. I wish that Jacobs grandfather didn't die because Abe was like the dad that Jacob never had. I strongly recommend this book, it will want you wanting more!
