I've been thinking about this for a while but seeing as I had the day off I decided to finally do the 'Who would I cast in Coraline' thing. If anyone is surprised by my choice in Coraline I will eat my hat.

"I don't want whatever I want. Nobody does. Not really. What kind of fun would it be if I just got everything I ever wanted just like that, and it didn't mean anything. What then?"

"How do I know you'll keep your word?" asked Coraline.
"I swear it," said the other mother. "I swear it on my own mother's grave."
"Does she have a grave?" asked Coraline.
"Oh yes," said the other mother. "I put her in there myself. And when I found her trying to crawl out, I put her back."

"For tea she went down to see Misses Spink and Forcible. She had three digestive biscuits, a glass of limeade, and a cup of weak tea. The limeade was very interesting. It didn't taste anything like limes. It tasted bright green and vaguely chemical. Coraline liked it enormously. She wished they had it at home.
"How are your dear mother and father?" asked Miss Spink.
"Missing," said Coraline. "I haven't seen either of them since yesterday. I'm on my own. I think I've probably become a single child family."

If she'd known his name was
Mr Bobo she would have said it every chance she got. How often
do you get to say a name like "Mister Bobo" aloud?

"What's your name,' Coraline asked the cat. 'Look, I'm Coraline. Okay?'
Cats don't have names,' it said.
No?' said Coraline.
No,' said the cat. 'Now you people have names. That's because you don't know who you are. We know who we are, so we don't need names."
