Graveyard Book: WINNER OF THE CARNEGIE MEDAL 2010

Neil Gaiman's Carnegie Medal winner is a darkly enchanting tale about Nobody Owens, a boy raised by ghosts in a graveyard after his family's murder. Think The Jungle Book meets Gothic fantasy, with Gaiman's signature blend of warmth, wit, and wonder. Bod's coming-of-age amongst tombstones and spectres is both thrilling and surprisingly tender—a modern classic that proves the best stories often lurk in unexpected places. Perfect for adventurous young readers (and adults) who love their magic tinged with shadows.
