Re: [LM_NET] Suitability of book

[Shonda Brisco <sbrisco@FWCDS.ORG>]

I agree that if the students are looking for a scary book, the Coraline is 
definitely one that will not only keep them reading, but also give them a little 
shiver at the end.

I loved this book and am sharing it with my 6th graders who like scary titles.

Are any of you familiar with Coraline by Neil Gaiman, Dave McKean 
(Illustrator)?  Is it suitable for 5th graders?
