A breathtaking new voyage from Caldecott Medalist Brian Selznick.Two stand-alone stories--the first in nearly 400 pages of continuous pictures, the second in prose--create a beguiling narrative puzzle.
The journey begins at sea in 1766, with a boy named Billy Marvel. After surviving a shipwreck, he finds work in a London theatre. There, his family flourishes for generations as brilliant actors until 1900, when young Leontes Marvel is banished from the stage.
Nearly a century later, runaway Joseph Jervis seeks refuge with an uncle in London. Albert Nightingale's strange, beautiful house, with its mysterious portraits and ghostly presences, captivates Joseph and leads him on a search for clues about the house, his family, and the past.
A gripping adventure and an intriguing invitation to decipher how the two stories connect, The Marvels is a loving tribute to the power of story from an artist at the vanguard of creative innovation.

Best wallet ever!!
Color: Brown (Trifold)
Got this for my dad for Xmas. He’s the pickiest person ever with wallets. He’s had the same one since I was in elementary school. He likes the trifold heavy duty wallets so I thought I’d give this a try and he has been using it ever since! He really likes the quality and durability and trifold in this wallet. Super secure and the leather is nice. Lots of card capacity and isn’t too thick

Heavy duty wallet.
Color: Black (Trifold)
Wow, this wallet is heavy duty thick leather with fantastic stitching. Will last a long time, very durable for a work wallet. The leather is smooth and fits well in the back pocket. A wallet for a man, not a boy.
