Coraline, jubilæumsudgave

Coraline er en blanding af  moderne eventyr og gåsehudsfremkaldende gyser. Bogen er stramt komponeret og fyldt med en elementær og foruroligende spænding, der river barnet med fra første side. Bogens mange betydningslag og tolkningsmuligheder har fået amerikanske kritiker og forfattere til at lovprise bogen og sammenligne den med Narnia og Alice i eventyrland. "I think this book will nudge "Alice in Wonderland" out of its niche at last. It is the most splendid original, weird and frightening book I have ever read, and yet full of things children will love." - Diana Wynne Jones. Pressen skrev: »Oh, at skulle læse Coraline for første gang! … Her er en glædelig, gysende angelsaksisk fantasi om at stå på egne ben og mærke verden for fuld forældreløs styrke. Et magisk værk!« ***** - Steffen Larsen, Politiken Anbefalet som årets børnebog til sommerferien 2013 i Politiken Anbefalet i Politikens gaveguide til børne- og ungdomsbøger, julen 2013
