The Making of Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children

Stay peculiar. This is the theme not only for the fictional world of Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, but for the production, too. Director Tim Burton, the man behind Edward Scissorhands, Alice in Wonderland, The Nightmare Before Christmas, and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, used this notion as a mission statement for the creation of the film. Is there are more perfect fit for a film about peculiar children who find comfort and strength with one another than Burton?
