Nojood from Jeddah, 14, Saudi Arabia said on Goodreads:

This is a wonderful book. Although I thought the line of the story was not strong enough but no one can deny that the whole package is good. A unique way of writing and illustrating a chapter book that is realy a picture book.

Summary

Orphan, clock keeper, and thief, Hugo lives in the walls of a busy Paris train station, where his survival depends on secrets and anonymity. But when his world suddenly interlocks with an eccentric, bookish girl and a bitter old man who runs a toy booth in the station, Hugo's undercover life and his most precious secret are put in jeopardy. A cryptic drawing, a treasured notebook, a stolen key, a mechanical man, and a hidden message from Hugo's dead father form the backbone of this intricate, tender, and spellbinding mystery.
