The original hardcover edition of a perennial favorite, The
Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman, which has sold more than one million
copies and is the only novel to win both the Newbery Medal and the
Carnegie Medal.
Bod is an unusual boy who inhabits an unusual place--he's the only
living resident of a graveyard. Raised from infancy by the ghosts,
werewolves, and other cemetery denizens, Bod has learned the antiquated
customs of his guardians' time as well as their ghostly teachings--such
as the ability to Fade so mere mortals cannot see him.
Can a boy raised by ghosts face the wonders and terrors of the worlds of
both the living and the dead?
The Graveyard Book is the winner of the Newbery Medal, the Carnegie
Medal, the Hugo Award for best novel, the Locus Award for Young Adult
novel, the American Bookseller Association's "Best Indie Young Adult
Buzz Book," a Horn Book Honor, and Audio Book of the Year.
