Another great book has been made to fit the “big screen”!!  Jonathan Safran’s book Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close is now a movie, in theaters now!

The movie version stars Tom Hanks, Thomas Horn and Sandra Bullock.

The story tells of a nine-year-old amateur inventor, Francophile, and pacifist searching New York City for the lock that matches a mysterious key left behind by his father, who died in the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001.

To read the book, place a hold now!

Other books by Jonathan Safran include: Eating Animals and Everything is Illuminated.

Interesting fact: Jonathan Safran is married Nicole Krauss, author of The History of Love and Great House.
