The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman





Neil Gaiman is my nephew's favorite author and now I see why. This 2009 Newbery winner lets the reader know that sometimes it is the humans that must be feared, not the so called monsters. Nobody Owens loses his first family to a murder and now lives in a graveyard. It does take a graveyard to raise a Nobody. A vampire, a werewolf, a witch, and too many ghosts to keep straight will keep you guessing who is who while enjoying the ride. If you like this book, you will have to go to the public library to get the rest of his books since they are aimed at the post YA audience.
