Product Description

 
In Coraline's family's new flat are twenty-one windows and fourteen doors. Thirteen of the doors open and close. The fourteenth is locked, and on the other side is only a brick wall, until the day Coraline unlocks the door to find a passage to another flat in another house just like her own.

Only it's different...

At first, things seem marvelous in the other flat. The food is better. The toy box is filled with wind-up angels that flutter around the bedroom. But there's another mother, and another father, and they want Coraline to stay with them and be their little girl. They want to change her and never let her go.

Other children are trapped there as well, lost souls behind the mirrors. Coraline is their only hope of rescue. She will have to fight with all her wits if she is to save the lost children, her ordinary life, and herself.

The Bottom Line: What's behind the secret door? Open it, you know you want to......
Review: As a kid, living in the suburbs in a standard suburban house, I thought of how fabulous it might be to live somewhere with a history, with secrets and hidden stairways and doors behind bookcases. Short of figuring a way around child labor laws and...

The things children's nightmares are made of

Date of Review:  Nov 9, 2003
The Bottom Line: Not a bad choice for middle school aged kids who love scary stories. Preferable to Goosebumps and cereal boxes.
Review: I've been in a writing slump lately, but I have to review Neil Gaiman's Coraline "or else". You see, I have an impatient ten-year-old badgering me to finish the book so that she can read it. The ten-year-old isn't my daughter, but rather, my...
