She didn't have a daddy? I asked. No. Did you have a daddy? You're all questions, aren't you? No, love. We never went in for that sort of thing. You only need men if you want to breed more men.

How big are souls anyway? asked Coraline. The other mother sat down at the kitchen table and leaned against the back wall, saying nothing.
