If you have a love of zombies and ghosts, this movie does not disappoint. But there’s a lot more to the story than I originally thought – I was surprised by how the creators were able to take a topic such as a boy who sees ghosts and turn it into a heartwarming story that advocates for acceptance of everyone’s differences, not bullying others, taking responsibility and staying true to yourself (even when your parents don’t listen!) It’s a movie for both children and adults and it’s been nominated for an Oscar for Best Animated Feature Film. ParaNorman is available through our online catalog, SWAN; it’s definitely worth seeing.
