gaiman wrote all the scripts for "sandman"

also try the novel he wrote with Terry Pratchett - "good
omens". its hilarious AND dark.

when you've read that :), read the other graphic novels he's
written scripts for - especially the ones drawn by Dave
McKean - they're spectacular and very intelligently written
("violent cases", "mr.punch" and especially recommended:
"signal to noise")

this is a delicious book but i never found it all that
scary. i'm sure it would be scary for a child, though.

I bought a Neil Gaiman book once. It had talking rats and
stuff... Wasn't really my thing, didn't finish it.

Never heard about it, but the Gaiman and McKean collabs are
always good, so I'll check it out. There is also a
Coraline-movie coming out, IMDB told me.

Was it about a young girl and another world/dimension?

I am huge Dave Mckean/Neil Gaiman fan, but the Mirror Mask
movie was absolute shit. With the exeption of Stardust, I
don't think that Gaimans' stuff translates well to film, the
made for TV stuff was like bad 80s' Dr Who. I know it wasn't
his script, but Constantine was a bad translation of a great
charictor. I hope that they never make a Sandman movie.

Oh, ok.

Coraline's about a girl entering another parallel dimension.
