The Gaiman and McKean team has produced another imaginative, absurd story, with a delightful mishmash of artistic styles and text fonts/placement, but it didn't have quite the same warmth for me as The Day I Swapped My Dad for Two Goldfish.

📚 Found this beautiful hardcover children‘s book while cleaning. Lucy hears wolves in the walls. Her mom thinks it‘s mice, her dad thinks it‘s rats & her brother thinks she‘s bats! 😆 If wolves should come out of the walls everyone says it‘ll be the end. Lucy has a pig puppet that she won‘t leave behind & soon the people & wolves exchange places. When people come out of the walls everything‘s back to normal unless, was that an elephant? 😆

Dark. It is exactly what my 9 year old will love and my 6 year old would be terrified of.

I‘ve always wanted to hear #papaG say SNORGELSNERP. Wonderful. As always. 🤓🐺📚

Lucy heard noises.
The noises were coming from INSIDE THE WALLS.
They were hustling noises and bustling noises.
They were crinkling noises and crackling noises.
They were sneaking, creeping, crumpling noises.

The wonderful @Maike sent back my Gaiman (Signal to Noise, left) and lent me her Gaiman (tagged, right).

Thank you. Will send it back soon.

So, while procrastinating I have read this book. The story is definitely Neil Gaiman and the art by Dave McKean definitely set the tone. I guess I now have to stop procrastinating and go do homework.

I love Gaiman‘s short stories. As much as I love his novels, I think he‘s better at shorter stories. He can‘t get as long-winded as he gets from time to time.

For #fangsoutfriday Seth and Bella chose wolves over vampires - here is their selection of books about wolves 🐺! Wolf Wilder is my very favourite closely followed by the tagged book #hallowreads #raisingreaders (some wolf Lego snuck in there too!)

#LitsyPartyOfOne It's a snowy day for staying cozily in; cereal and a good re-read.

After seeing the Mirrormask movie, some 7+ years ago, I sought out The Wolves In The Walls book at Chapters, really enjoying the story and illustration style. - I remember asking a sales girl about where to find the book, "It's in the children's section.. Are you sure that's what you're looking for?" / "Let's see it; I'll show you the arts in this book." ? That made another new Giaman fan. ?

TobeyTheScavengerMonk I read this to my 2 1/2 year old son all the time! He even says "It's all over." 7y
Oryx I have this. The art is amazing. 7y
Oryx It's part of my "children's books that children aren't allowed to touch collection" ? 7y

SpiderCrafts @TobeyTheScavengerMonk Very cool 😸 it's a great line for the mysterious epic thrills! 7y
SpiderCrafts @Oryx The darkly illustrations are quite spooky, as I'm thinking of all the books I couldn't help getting into early on 😸 The Tailypo was the eeriest I remember. 7y
readinginthedark Mirrormask! That movie is so good! 7y

This is delightful, super short (only about 15minutes), and Neil Gaiman's voice is just wonderful. I listened to it so I missed out on the pictures but it was a fun listen.

A very short audiobook containing 3 stories: •The Day I Swapped my Dad for Two Goldfish, •Wolves in the Walls, •Cinnamon. Also, a poem: •Crazy Hair. They're all silly and cute and narrated by Neil Gaiman. I love him. He should narrate all books! ❤️❤️❤️

Loved the feisty girl in this book. It's Gaiman though, so I shouldn't be surprised by that!
