The Wolves in the Walls

“Gaiman does here for the older picture-book set what he did for middle-grade readers with Coraline.” –Kirkus (starred review)

Lucy is sure there are wolves living in the walls of their house–and, as everybody says, if the wolves come out of the walls, it’s all over. Her family doesn’t believe her. Then one day, the wolves come out.

But it’s not all over. Instead, Lucy’s battle with the wolves is only just beginning.

There are sneaking, creeping, crumpling noises coming from inside the walls…

This New York Times Best Illustrated Book combines a deliciously creepy tale, a strong heroine, and a happy ending in a package that only Neil Gaiman and Dave McKean could have created.
