A stunning graphic novel adaptation of the beloved New York Times bestselling novel.
Neil Gaiman's enchanting, nationally bestselling children's book Coraline is brought to new life by acclaimed artist P. Craig Russell in this gorgeously illustrated graphic novel adaptation.
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.
Rezension:
"A virtuoso adaptation...a master of fantastical landscapes, Russell sharpens the realism of his imagery, preserving the humanity of the characters and heightening the horror, even as Gaiman's concise storytelling ratchets up the eeriness." - Booklist (starred review)
"A deliciously dark graphic adaptation of Gaiman's modern classic...sure to delight established fans and to mesmerize newcomers." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
"This adaptation of Neil Gaiman's novel reads as though it were intended for the graphic novel format in the first place.... Russell's illustrations suit the tone of the story perfectly. - School Library Journal (starred review)
"This graphic novel is as dark, creepy, and brilliant as anything out there." - Chicago Tribune
