Hi!
My name is Julia and I will be telling you
about The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman.
This book is about a boy named Nobody Owens.
His biological parents died and gave him to
the Owens to raise.
The Owens are ghosts, so they took him to
their graveyard and asked Silas to take care
of him because Silas is neither ghost or living.
Silas provided his food and shelter along
with guidance like a parent.
Anybody who knows Nobody Owens calls him Bod.
Bod is not like a little boy you would see
walking down the street.
He can fade like a ghost.
He can see in the dark when he is in the graveyard.
And he can go into a grave like it is his
house.
Bod still isn’t a ghost.
Unlike ghosts, he can leave the graveyard,
but he is not supposed to because he would
not be protected.
Bod gets lessons from ghosts instead of going
to school.
Each chapter is written as its own mini-story,
yet all are connected.
You will find a lot of unexpected action and
characters who are not who you think they
are in this book.
I would recommend this book to anybody who
likes a good supernatural story.
