JOHN LEE

Em 'Os lobos dentro das paredes', a pequena Lucy escuta ruídos furtivos vindos de dentro das paredes de sua casa. Ela tem certeza de que existem lobos vivendo ali e que, se eles saírem, estará tudo acabado. Os pais não acreditam nela, até o dia em que as tais criaturas realmente aparecem.

Os lobos dentro das paredes

Lucy hears sneaking, creeping, crumpling noises coming from inside the walls. She is sure there are wolves living in the walls of her house.

The Wolves in the Walls

Sarah Sammis

Sean's first introduction to Neil Gaiman was Coraline. Since he has talked about his own monsters living the walls of his bedroom and inside his clock, I figured he'd like The Wolves in the Walls too. He did.

Lucy like Coraline lives with clueless parents. She can hear the wolves in the walls just as Coraline knew something was up with that walled up door. Her family though ignores her warnings.

Now you might think they ignore her because wolves in the walls is complete fantasy. It isn't – not in their world. Wolves really do come out of the walls and really do take over homes. 

Lucy, again like Coraline, has the pluck to put things right. Coraline can trick the Other Mother by playing her own game. Lucy can evict the wolves by recreating their method of terrorizing a family.

The Wolves in the Walls has Dave McKean's excellent illustrations. They are dark, wild and off kilter, a perfect mix for this picture book that dances on the border of horror without actually crossing over.

Very Neil Gaiman. I listened to the audiobook narrated by him and it was awesome.
I think it's a great bedtime story for kids despite maybe being slightly creepy (honestly, maybe I'm reading too many stories like that because it didn't even feel that creepy to me).

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