The story begins with Jacob, a 16 year old boy, who has always believed in his grandfathers bedtime stories as a little kid. Now that he's a teenager Jacob is doubtful about whether they are true or not. His grandfathers stories were about a land far away where children with special abilites lived in a boarding home ran by a mysterious lady named Miss Peregrine. One child named Olive who is on the cover had the ability to float off the ground. Another child had the ability to disapear. When Jacob travels to the island because of a family tragedy he goes to the home his grandfather told him about. What he doesen't know is that the place might be haunted and the children might just still be alive.
A very interesting thing about this book is that it contains pictures throughout the book. The really amazing thing about this book is that they are real pictures found at garage sales.
I really loved this book because of the very creepy nature of the book. Jacob learns a whole lot about himself and his grandfather throughout this book. This book was AMAZING! I give it 8 out of 10 stars!
