Ms. Thoennes says...
This is a strange and creepy story by British author Neil Gaiman. The alternate world that Coraline has entered is full of odd people and places: people with black buttons for eyes and a theater full of dogs, just to name a couple. Will Coraline escape the clutches of her Other Mother and save her parents? An animated movie adaptation of this book is coming out in February 2009.
