Sam Kellar-long (samk-l) | 7 comments Wonderstruck is a very thought provoking book. It's about a kid named Ben and a kid named Rose who live in different time periods. Rose is deaf, and Ben becomes deaf because of a lightning bolt. Ben goes to New York looking for his father, meets Jamie, amid who takes him to a museum. They mess around in the museum, and then Ben goes to Kincaid books, where his father supposedly works. He meets Rose there, who is now an old lady and It turns out that his fathers dead and Rose is his grandmother. Woohooo, everyone's connected! Then Jamie comes and they all sit looking up at the stars. Very cute ending.

This is a very brief review, I left out a lot, but it gives you a little sense of what the books about.
