About this ebook

This edition of New York Times bestselling and Newbery Medal-winning author Neil Gaiman’s modern classic, Coraline—also an Academy Award-nominated film—is enriched with a foreword from the author, a reader's guide, and more.

"Coraline discovered the door a little while after they moved into the house...."

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.

Neil Gaiman's Coraline is a can't-miss classic that enthralls readers age 8 to 12 but also adults who enjoy a perfect smart spooky read.

Coraline feels like a story that was discovered and written rather than a story that was composed and written, in the best way possible. Coraline has such an impeccable timeless feel to it that I'm honestly surprised no one told this story until 2002. It feels like the phrase "careful what you wish for" was made because of this story, rather than existing way before it came out. And it's only 200 pages, so succinct I love it.

Coraline is a really cool and spooky book! It's about a girl who finds a secret door to another world that's not quite right. The story is creepy and suspenseful, but also really imaginative and fun. I love the way Neil Gaiman creates this weird and wonderful world. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who likes a good scare.

I love how everyone who meets Coraline gets her name wrong. . .then the strange door and the other world that she visits. She seems to like it there until it's not. Worth a read.
