Reviews
-
This book is quite extraordinary. Extraordinary and scary. But also madly inventive and madly funny.
Guardian
-
This spectacular book, with its stylish blend of photography, paint, collage and drawing does not look like most children's picture books. It is atmospheric, sinister, scary and funny ... This is a book for cool kids who will grow up to be fearless.
Nicolette Jones, Sunday Times, Children's Book of the Week
-
A riotously strange, funny and scary picture book for fright-loving older readers. McKean's spiky art, with its imaginative use of photography is the real star turn here and has to be seen to be believed.

Neil Gaiman fuses some classic fictional strands as Lucy's fears are ignored by her family...Gaiman doesn't waste words as he builds up first fear and then a delicious sense of relief achieved by some moments of real humour.
Julia Eccleshare, Guardian

Bringing the unsettling quality of his brilliant Coraline novel to picture books, Neil Gaiman has teamed up with illustrator Dave McKean to create the unparalleled The Wolves in the Walls. Despite the flashes of humour and the clearly nonsensical proposition at the heart of this book, this is deeply scary stuff...
Sunday Telegraph

Like so much of Gaiman's work Wolves is brimming with atmosphere and ambiguity, laced with fear and doubt and refuses to provide any easy answers.
