Once upon a time
on one island
on the other side of the world
very strange children lived...

Secrets, Mysteries and History of the Strange Children of Miss Peregrine's Orphanage

Even before Miss Peregrine created the loop - a home and refuge - for the now well-known Peculiar Children, there were stories of Peculiar Children and Animals that were first passed down by word of mouth until one of the most famous, Peculiar, took up the role of editor. Millard Nullings. These are stories from the history of the strange, in which we learn that the children first lived without problems in the company of ordinary, ordinary people, but their special abilities and talents gradually pushed them to the edge, until ordinary people drove them out of their midst completely.
Some of the ten stories are partly familiar to readers from references in the trilogy about the strange children of Miss Peregrine's orphanage - for example, the one about the kind giant Cuthbert or the pigeons from St. Paul's Cathedral - others are completely new and introduce new, unknown heroes, and among other things you will learn about the first embryo and how it gradually learned to create loops in which it was possible to live.
Ransom Riggs shares with you - thanks to the careful editing work of M.N. - some secrets from the history of the strange. Those who have read the exciting stories about Miss Peregrine and her charges will definitely not miss this kind book.
