Coraline by Neil Gaiman
When Coraline moves with her parents to a new house she is fascinated by the fact that their 'house' is in fact only half a house! And so a nightmare-ish mystery begins that takes Coraline into the arms of counterfeit parents and a life that isn't quite right. Can Coraline get out? Can she find her real parents? Will life ever be the same again?
I think this book will nudge ALICE IN WONDERLAND out of its niche at lastIt is the most splendidly original, weird, and frightening book I have read, and yet full of things children will love. Diana Wynne Jones This book will send a shiver down your spine, out through your shoes and into a taxi to the airport. It has the delicate horror of the finest fairy tales, and it is a masterpiece. And you will never think about buttons in quite the same way again. Terry Pratchett
