Bloomsbury presents this unabridged edition of The Graveyard Book written and read by Neil Gaiman.

Winner of the Newbery Medal

When a baby escapes a murderer intent on killing the entire family, who would have thought it would find safety and security in the local graveyard?
Brought up by the resident ghosts, ghouls and spectres, Bod has an eccentric childhood learning about life from the dead. But for Bod there is also the danger of the murderer still looking for him – after all, he is the last remaining member of the family. A stunningly original novel deftly constructed over eight chapters, featuring every second year of Bod's life, from babyhood to adolescence. Will Bod survive to be a man?©2008 Neil Gaiman (P)2008 Bloomsbury Publishing Plc Fantasy Horror Hugo Award Literature & Fiction Locus Award Mystery, Thriller & Suspense Newbery Medal Paranormal Science Fiction & Fantasy

Wonderful experience

I was very taken with the story of this wonderful book, which can be read and heard by anyone - teenager or grown-up alike. The entire book is very sweet and almost naive, but at the same time, there are both scary characters and children as heroes. The main character, Nobody Owens, is very innocent but at the same time strong and open to all the things. I highly recommend this book - I heard it in one fell swoop and could not bear to press pause. The author is very talented, painting pictures with every word!

Quaint, sweet and naive
