Nadie Owens, más conocido como Nad, es un chico normal. Sería del todo normal si no viviera en un cementerio, entre fantasmas que lo educan y lo crían, y si no tuviera un tutor que no pertenece ni al mundo de los vivos ni al de los muertos.

Una de las obras juveniles más celebradas del maestro Neil Gaiman convertida en novela gráfica.
Más de 200.000 ejemplares vendidos en todo el mundo.


En un cementerio un niño puede encontrar muchas aventuras, y si Nad se va, vivirá bajo la amenaza de Jack, el hombre que mató a toda su familia. A pesar del peligro, Nad quiere abandonar el cementerio para ir al colegio de los vivos y descubrir algo más sobre el asesinato de su familia. Pero cuando usa sus dotes para el Miedo contra dos abusones y se acerca demasiado al tal Jack, pondrá en riesgo más cosas de las que se puede imaginar.

En esta adaptación de P. Craig Russell, cada capítulo está ilustrado por un gran talento del mundo de los cómics, lo que permite disfrutar de su genialidad y de la diversidad de estilos. Juntos, dan una nueva vida a El libro del cementerio, la premiada novela superventas de Neil Gaiman, en esta novela gráfica espléndidamente ilustrada.


ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

This edition of The Graveyard Book includes sketches from the illustrator, handwritten drafts, and Neil Gaiman’s Newbery acceptance speech. This middle grade novel is an excellent choice for tween readers in grades 5 to 6, especially during homeschooling. It’s a fun way to keep your child entertained and engaged while not in the classroom.

IT TAKES A GRAVEYARD TO RAISE A CHILD.
Nobody Owens, known as Bod, is a normal boy. He would be completely normal if he didn’t live in a graveyard, being raised by ghosts, with a guardian who belongs to neither the world of the living nor the dead. There are adventures in the graveyard for a boy—an ancient Indigo Man, a gateway to the abandoned city of ghouls, the strange and terrible Sleer. But if Bod leaves the graveyard, he will be in danger from the man Jack—who has already killed Bod’s family.
The Graveyard Book, a modern classic, is the only work ever to win both the Newbery (US) and Carnegie (UK) medals.
