"A guidebook to the peculiar world for fledgling members, with notes about the variety of peculiar abilities, techniques for blending in with normals, and other helpful features. A keepsake that may fill in a few blanks even for devoted fans of the series." -Kirkus "Incredibly immersive.... The newest installment to the Miss Peregrine's universe is stunning. The format and style are approachable. Miss Peregrine's Museum of Wonders can easily be read as a standalone or an introduction to the peculiar world ....
