“Boy, can Ransom Riggs tell a story. If he’d been stuck in rainy 1818 Switzerland with Lord Byron, and Mary and Percy Shelley and taken up Byron’s challenge to write a ghost story, Miss Peregrine would have given Frankenstein a run for its money.” —NPR.org
 
“A visually rich literary experience.” —New York Times Book Review
 
“[A] chilling, wondrous novel.” —People
 
“[A] thrilling, Tim Burton–esque tale with haunting photographs.” —USA Today
 
“Readers searching for the next Harry Potter may want to visit Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children.” —CNN
 
“X-Men: First Class-meets-time-travel story line, David Lynchian imagery, and rich eerie detail.” —Entertainment Weekly
 
“A tense, moving, and wondrously strange first novel. The photographs and text work together brilliantly to create an unforgettable story.” —John Green, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Turtles All the Way Down and The Fault in Our Stars
