The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman

This is an interesting little book about a boy who is delivered to a graveyard as a toddler and is then raised by ghosts. The man who killed his parents is looking for him, though, and his adoptive parents along with other ghosts and entities in the Graveyard must prepare him for any future encounters with this ever-so-tenacious nemesis.

Merit: Fascinating premise. Easy to read.
Share: Book clubs & reading lists.
Appeal: Intermediate readers. Boys & girls.
