Ransom Riggs Books Overview

Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children

A mysterious island. An abandoned orphanage. And a strange collection of very curious photographs. It all waits to be discovered in ‘Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children’, an unforgettable novel that mixes fiction and photography in a thrilling reading experience. As our story opens, a horrific family tragedy sets sixteen year old Jacob journeying to a remote island off the coast of Wales, where he discovers the crumbling ruins of Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children. As Jacob explores its abandoned bedrooms and hallways, it becomes clear that the children who once lived here one of whom was his own grandfather were more than just peculiar. They may have been dangerous. They may have been quarantined on a desolate island for good reason. And somehow impossible though it seems they may still be alive. A spine tingling fantasy illustrated with haunting vintage photography, ‘Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children’ will delight adults, teens, and anyone who relishes an adventure in the shadows.

The Sherlock Holmes Handbook

The first Sherlock Holmes adventure appeared in 1888, but today the detective is more popular than ever witness the upcoming release of ‘Sherlock Holmes’, starring Robert Downey Jr. as the legendary Victorian sleuth and Jude Law as his faithful chronicler, Dr. John H. Watson. For readers who dream of solving crimes in turn of the century London, ‘The Sherlock Holmes Handbook‘ features skills that every would be sleuth should know: How to Use Deductive Reasoning, How to Analyze Fingerprints Without Computers, How to Master a Dozen Disguises, How to Survive a Plunge over a Waterfall, and How to Fake Your Own Death. Readers will also discover a host of information about Holmes and his universe: How was the real Scotland Yard organized? Could people really buy cocaine over the counter back then? And why were the British so terrified of Australia? Packed with fascinating trivia, evocative illustrations, and a classic Victorian design, ‘The Sherlock Holmes Handbook‘ will appeal to ‘Baker Street Irregulars’ of all ages.

Talking Pictures

With the candid quirkiness of Awkward Family Photos and the confessional intimacy of PostSecret, Ransom Riggs’s Talking Pictures is a haunting collection of antique found photographs with evocative inscriptions that bring these lost personal moments to life from the author of the New York Times bestselling illustrated novel Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children. Each image in Talking Pictures reveals a singular, frozen moment in a person s life, be it joyful, quiet, or steeped in sorrow. Yet the book s unique depth comes from the writing accompanying each photo: as with the caption revealing how one seemingly random snapshot of a dancing couple captured the first dance of their 40 year marriage, each successive inscription shines like a flashbulb illuminating a photograph s particular context and lighting up our connection to the past.
