Newbery Winner--The Graveyard Book

Neil Gaiman, the author of Coraline, has won the 2009 Newbery Medal for his spine-tingling new story, The Graveyard Book. A peek at the blurb on the cover will make you want to read this book..."Nobody Owens, known to his friends as Bod, is a normal boy. He would be completely normal if he didn't live in a sprawling graveyard, being raised and educated by ghosts, with a solitary guardian who belongs to neither the world of the living nor of the dead." Try this book! Two copies available in the media center.
