The film adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s award-winning novella (see the Coraline entry on Wikipedia for a plot synopsis) is coming to Hong Kong at last!

We’re currently reading the graphic novel version of Coraline in our intermediate classes, but there are several different editions available in bookstores – including the original edition illustrated by Dave McKean, the graphic novel, and a couple of film tie-in versions.
