Because,' she said, 'when you're scared but you still do it anyway, that's brave.
This one tells the story of Coraline Jones, who finds a doorway to a parallel and sinister otherworld inside her new home, and must battle the evil "Other Mother" who lives there to secure her family's safety.
I feel like the main themes of Coraline are appreciating what you have and having courage to fight for those you love.
Very likeable, well-written novella, that has similar elements to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and which I believe will be at that 'classic' status in years to come..
