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.

Ratings and reviews

Coraline is suppose to be a children's book, but it's so intriguing that it grabs your attention and holds it no matter what your age. I wasn't sure if it would be for me, but I really liked it. I recommend this book for all ages.

I did not purchase this book, I got it at my local library. Great read for late elementary and very thrilling for young pre-teens. Very similar to the movie, but it flows nicer and not as choppy. Nice for the upcoming Halloween season. Unique drawings before every chapter.

The book is amazing. The story captures you curiosity as you want to know what happens next. The story is just beautiful. The way the mystery unravels makes it worth while. I would recommend it for kids in 4-5th grade as it has some difficult words, but challenges them enough to make it good. (Try it for 3rd graders who have a 4th or 5th grade reading level)
