Here Be Monsters by Alan Snow

Step into the gloriously grimy, fantastically inventive world of Ratbridge in the novel that inspired the beloved stop-motion film, The Boxtrolls! When young Arthur finds himself trapped in the town, he falls into the clutches of the villainous Snatcher, a dastardly outlaw with a secret plan to destroy everything. To save the town and find his way home, Arthur must team up with a wonderfully bizarre cast of allies, including shy, rubbish-collecting Boxtrolls, well-meaning Cabbageheads, a frustrated inventor, and a crew of seafaring rats. Filled with intricate illustrations by the author, this is a tale of skulduggery, friendship, and outrageous adventure.
