Coraline Graphic Novel by Neil Gaiman & Illustrated by P. Craig Russell


Coraline’s graphic novel adaptation is both well written and visually stunning!

Coraline and her family moves into a new house. It is a big old house. Coraline is always lonely and bored so she goes exploring to past time. During one of her exploring missions, she finds a door in her family’s house. Through this door she finds another house, strangely similar to hers. At first everything was going well. The food was better than at home and the toy box was full of interesting toys. But when she meets her other mother and father and find out they want her to stay and be their little girl. Coraline knows she must find her way back to her world.

Coraline is a great book. Although creepy, it is sure to delight. I love the graphic novel version. The amazing illustrations really adds to the fright of the story. Though the book says its for ages 8 and up, I feel it is better suited for an older crowd, at least 10 and up. Anyone younger might be scared.



Unfortunately I haven’t seen the Coraline movie. Through many reviews I have read it seems that the movie adds what is missing from the book. So with that being said, I must see the Coraline movie.

Review: Sleepaway Girls by Jen Calonita


Welcome to Whispering Pines camp!


When Sam’s best friend gets her first boyfriend, she isn’t ready to spend the summer as the third wheel. So she makes the first bold move in her life and applies to be a counselor-in-training (CIT) at Whispering Pines camp in the New York Catskills. What she doesn’t realize is that it isn’t going to be all fun and games. Will Sam’s decision to come to Whispering Pines be one she will regret or one she will never forget?

Sleepaway Girls is a fun read. Sam is a great character. Throughout the story you really see her character growth. The Sleepaway Girls are a diverse group of girls: Em is the bookworm, Grace is completive and Court is boy crazy. The “villain” of the story, Ashley, is perfectly written. She is a queen that needs to be knocked off her throne. The feud between Sam/The Sleepaway Girls and Ashley was interesting and entertaining at times. The Sleepaway Girls makes camp seem cool for those who have never been and makes past campers remember the fun they had and would want to go back!

Review: You Never Heard of Sandy Koufax?! by Jonah Winter

Children's book on Sandy Koufax
is a grand slam read
for baseball fans of ALL ages!


"You Never Heard of Sandy Koufax?" is a picture book biography about the greatest left-handed pitcher of all time. This book takes you through Koufax's early life and his years with the Dodgers (the good and bad years), eventually moving onto his peak years and early retirement.

"You Never Heard of Sandy Koufax?" delivers a good overview of Koufax’s incredible story. It is chock-full of baseball statistics, which are all nicely placed along the sides of the book. Andre Carrilho's art was perfect. Though simple in design and color scheme, it leaves an impact. I think the reflective cover is cool and very eye-catching. "You Never Heard of Sandy Koufax?" is perfect for parents and grandparents to share with their young baseball fans.

Please Note: Due to all the statistics, children 4-8 (which the book is geared towards) would benefit from the book being read to them.
