Why do you think the author wrote this work?

I believe the author wrote Miss Peregrines Home For Peculiar Children because he was trying to show the readers its ok to believe in something that may seem stupid or not real because it just might possibly end up being real. I think he is trying to show this through his book because in the beginning when Jacob is just a young child Jacobs grandfather is telling him these stories of where he grew up. How he was raised by a bird, new a girl who could levitate and boys who could lift boulders over their heads without ease. Now Jacob believed all of this because he was so young but as he grew older he stopped believing and even got angry with his grandfather for lying to him. It wasn't until after a tragic event he decided to believe his grandfathers many crazy stories and try and find the mystical island all of the stories were based on. Well Jacob found the island and Miss Peregrine even though everyone thought he wouldn't and would just find disappointment. Instead of this Jacob proved them wrong and found what his grandfather had been telling him. This proves that the author wrote the story because he was trying to show the readers its ok to believe in something that may seem stupid or not real because it could possibly end up being real.
