It’s funny how I grew up with a film version of this story but had only recently picked up this wonderful book, finding myself delightedly pinning down those page markers at the little words I liked best. Or better said - quotes. 
A young girl showing bravery despite her fear to bring a happy end to her tale? I think it’s something we all can earn from Coraline.
I think, this is a book for all ages, especially those of us who need that little nudge, a hand in the dark. 

A wonderful story and honestly, I can see myself reading more by Neil Gaiman.
