Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children: by Ransom Riggs | Conversation Starters
Jacob Portman is very close to his grandfather, who tells him fantastic stories that he believed were real when he was a child. As he grew up, he began to be more skeptical. But when his grandfather died, allegedly killed by feral dogs, Jacob gradually begins to wonder if the fantastic stories might just have been true. While undergoing therapy after the loss he suffered, Jacob gradually discovers things and wants to go to Wales where his grandfather spent time as a child refugee from Poland. In Wales, Jacob meets his grandfather’s friends and in the process, discovers his own identity. The question is how far he is willing to accept this knowledge and help his new friends fight quite another kind of war.
