The Graveyard Book
Author: Neil Gaiman
Genre: Children's Books
Book Type: Hardcover
reviewed on + 4 more book reviews


The name of this book caught my eye as I was browsing through my Amazon.com app reading book reviews. Those reviews said that this is a tribute the The Jungle Book. I have never read The Jungle Book so I can't verify if that's true, but the stories do seem similar and the gouls put me in mind of the orangutangs in the Disney movie. That being said, I loved this book. I have the audio version and Neil Gaiman himself narrates. All I can say is Mr. Gaiman should be required to narrate all books, at least those set in England or with characters with English accents. If you enjoy audio books, do yourself a favor and listen. If not, you are sure to enjoy reading.
