Especificaciones del producto
Escrito por Ransom Riggs
Ransom Riggs és director i guionista de cinema, i també escriu llibres. Li agrada fer fotografies (i buscar-ne), viatjar a llocs difícils de trobar als mapes, explorar zones urbanes en construcció i fer submarinisme, que és com explorar zones en construcció però amb peixos i vaixells enfonsats en lloc de cases en ruïnes. La llar de Miss Peregrine per a nens peculiars és la seva primera novel·la, que ha acumulat èxits de crítica i de públic i ha estat adaptada al cinema per Tim Burton.
