"We COULD be rare specimens of an exotic breed of African dancing elephants. But we're not. At least ... I'm not."
I love graphic novel adaptations of beloved novels.
Good stuff!

This book was not like the movie, but was very alike it. Coraline just moved into her new house, when she finds a door that leads to "nowhere". While Coraline is sleeping, she goes into the door that is now an entrance to a new world. The…
I would rate this book 4 and a half stars because I thought that it was very interesting and the book kept me reading. My favourite part of this book was when she played a game with the other mother. Coraline had to find the hearts of the…

This graphic novel version of Gaiman's masterpiece does an adequate job of conveying the other-worldliness of the tale, but the film is a better visual representation.

I liked this book a lot! Just a warning: ot is a graphic novel, like a comic book, so if you are into chapter books then I wouldn't suggest it for you. But it has a very good story.

I absolutely loved the movie, which led me to the book which is ten times better. The author technique of this book is very unique, which makes it a deliciously satisfying book.

It has the feel of a great children's book, which means that adults should enjoy it as well. It does not talk down to the children, nor does it seek to coddle or terrify them. It simply tells a story. The author remembers what it is to be…

This is a beautiful book. I have enjoyed every adaptation of this book, but I believe this one is my favorite. Russell's art has always been superb, never more so than on this graphic novel.
