A tremendously original blend of fantasy, humour, ghost story and family drama from Neil Gaiman, now published in paperback. When a baby escapes a murderer intent on killing the entire family, who would have thought he would find safety in a graveyard? In 8 chapters featuring every second year of Bod`s life, we trace his upbringing by ghosts from infancy to adolescence. With the murderer still at large, will he survive to be a man? This edition is aimed at the young adult market, and contains illustrations by Chris Riddell. Ages: 12+
