Description
In Coraline's family's new flat there's a locked door. On the other side is a brick wall until Coraline unlocks the door . . . and finds a passage to another flat in another house just like her own.
Only different.
The food is better there. Books have pictures that writhe and crawl and shimmer. And there's another mother and father there who want Coraline to be their little girl. They want to "change" her and keep her with them. . . . "Forever."
"Coraline" is an extraordinary fairy tale/nightmare from the uniquely skewed imagination of #1" New York Times" bestselling author Neil Gaiman.
Critic Reviews
“"You don't have to be a kid to appreciate the spell Gaiman casts in the suspenseful Coraline. Walk through the door and you'll believe in love, magic and the power of good over evil."”
"Not since four English schoolchildren walked through a wardrobe and discovered the magical land of Narnia has the simple act of opening a door unlocked such a fantastic journey. And not since Alice tumbled down the rabbit hole has that journey been so splendidly strange and frightening . . . . You don't have to be a kid to appreciate the spell Gaiman casts in the suspenseful Coraline. Walk through the door and you'll believe in love, magic and the power of good over evil."--USA Today
"Rise to your feet and applaud: Coraline is the real thing."--Philip Pullman, author of His Dark Materials
"An electifyingly creepy tale likely to haunt young readers for many moons."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Inventine, scay, thrilling, and finally affirmative."--Washington Post Book World
--USA Today
