Coraline


Name of the book: Coraline
Author: Neil Gaiman
Number of pages read: 45

By now the main problem is that the character is living with her "other" mother. At the beginning of the book she was with her parents and she saw one door that she never opened. Her main goal was to go inside, and she did. But she realizes that she has another mother and father living on the other side. She is spending time with them, and after some time she decides to go home. Her parents are not there for a long time and she gets worried, then she looks into a mirror and her parents are in it, her father is saying something but she doesn't understand, and her mother writes on the mirror "HELP US". Coraline goes again to her other parents because she thinks that they did something to her parents. When she goes in, they were already waiting for her,taking the key and locking the door so she can't go back in. After spending some time she realizes that her other mother is really mean, and that she is planning to do something to Coraline. But Coraline doesn't want to leave until she finds out were her parents are, and because of her bad manners her other mother locks her into a mirror, were there other shapes/things that tell her she should run away as fast as she can, because she might die because of her evil other mother. 

Basically, main problems:
1. Can't find her real parents.
2. Living with other parents that are evil. 

The other mother
Also the other mother
