This book provides an interesting introduction to filmmaker Georges Melies. Though young Hugo is the main character, you can't help but learn a lot about Melies and his movies, especially Le Voyage dans la lune (A Trip to the Moon).
The book itself is an interesting mix of novel & graphic novel as parts of the story are told only in pictures. The reading audience is listed as 9 - 12 year olds but that is very limiting and I see no reason why many adults won't also enjoy it.
