Neil Gaiman's enchanting, nationally bestselling children's book Coraline is brought to new life by acclaimed artist P. Craig Russell in this gorgeously illustrated graphic novel adaptation.

When Coraline steps through a door to find another house strangely similar to her own (only better), things seem marvelous.

But there's another mother there, and another father, and they want her to stay and be their little girl. They want to change her and never let her go.

Coraline will have to fight with all her wit and courage if she is to save herself and return to her ordinary life.

Review of 'Coraline' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

As all Gaiman's books, this is quite a dark story about a brave girl called Coraline, but who is often called Caroline. Coraline is very smart but is often ignored by the grown-ups around her. She ends up getting into a big trouble when she opens a mysterious door and arrives to a place where everything looks like her world but it is not exactly the same - her other mother is particularly creepy.

This is a great story about doing the right thing and being brave, even when you are really scared. Gaiman's writing is beautiful and sometimes Coraline's logical and innocent thoughts reminded me of [a:Diana Wynne Jones|4260|Diana Wynne Jones|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1193516584p2/4260.jpg]. Great book, and a great message for life. So simple and yet so needed.
