When Coraline moves to a new house she is fascinated by the fact that their house is in fact only half a house. Divided into flats years before, the other flat, it soon becomes clear to Coraline, is not quite as cosy and safe as her own.
The bewitching classic children's graphic novel by Neil Gaiman, adapted from his bestselling book
'I was enthralled ... a marvellously strange and scary book' Philip Pullman
'A masterpiece' Terry Pratchett
There is something strange about Coraline's new home.
It's not the mist, or the cat that always seems to be watching her, nor the signs of danger that Miss Spink and Miss Forcible, her new neighbours, read in the tea leaves. It's the other house - the one behind the old door in the drawing room.
Another mother and father with black-button eyes and papery skin are waiting for Coraline to join them there. And they want her to stay with them. For ever. She knows that if she ventures through that door, she may never come back.
This deliciously creepy, gripping graphic novel is beautifully illustrated on every page, and is guaranteed to delight and entrance readers of all ages.
'This book will send a shiver down your spine, out through your shoes and into a taxi to the airport. It has the delicate horror of the finest fairy tales, and it is a masterpiece. And you will never think about buttons in quite the same way again'
