The Invention Of Hugo Cabret- By - Brian Selznick

Summary
So far in my book Hugo made a bet with the toy booth man. The man said if Hugo cleans up the store and fixes his broken toys he might consider giving him the notebook with all the drawings and secrets. The old man niece said she will help get the notebook if he let's her see what's inside. Hugo doesn't want know one to look at the notebook. Over a few weeks the girl and Hugo became good friends. Hugo needs the notebook fast because his dad gave him this mechanical man. Its made of clockworks. It really rare. Hugo dad told him that he want's him to fix it up before he died. If he fixes the mechanical man will write a secret message. Hugo is trying to fix it without the notebook but there is only one part missing. It needs a heart shaped key. Hugo realizes that the girl has the same key. Why would she have it?


Conflict
The conflict is that Hugo needs his notebook with all his dad drawings so he could fix the mechanical. The Old man took it from him and now Hugo has to work for him until the Old man decides to give it back to him. This shows that Hugo will do anything to get that notebook back. Also the mechanical man needs a heart shaped key in order for it to work. The little girl has the same key.
