1.I would recommend this book to upper elementary or even early middle school.
2.This book goes through the story for a kid who grew up in a graveyard raised by ghosts. He goes through many struggles and adventures. This curious kid tends to find a lot of trouble with ghouls, caves and a guy named Jack. This is an amazing book that demonstrates friendship and has a tad bit of history thrown in there.
3.I will definitely recommend this book in my classroom. It does involve a little bit of religion but not too much. This book however is a little scary to begin with and quite sad so it may be super rough for some kids. But it is such a good book. ( )

A rather traditional story. Child loses parents, goes through hardships, learns and grows. Imaginative touches from Neil Gaiman,I’m sure many kids could relate to the revenge on the bullies section. Fun overall, felt like I needed a sequel at the end ( )

author integrates themes like tragedy, grief and anger into a very layered and colorful world that is pure magic. however, the narrative structure does suddenly become... an anthology (???) midway through and just drags. the opening and closing chapters were gd stellar though. ( )

Very cute book. It reminded me of old school fairytales and it was a welcome change in my reading-list. It's a shame the drawings by Dave McKean were not really an addition to the story.
The Graveyard Book has the same Gaiman-atmosphere (and loveable characters!) as some of his most precious short stories, like October in the Chair (from '[b:fragile things|16788|Fragile Things Short Fictions and Wonders|Neil Gaiman|http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/413KcOdeB9L._SL75_.jpg|3262727]') ( )

Gaiman writes with charm and humor, and again he has a real winner.

Like a bite of dark Halloween chocolate, this novel proves rich, bittersweet and very satisfying.
 
This is fine work, from beginning to end, and the best bedtime story read-aloud material I've encountered in a long time. Can't wait until my daughter's old enough to read this to.

When the chilling moments do come, they are as genuinely frightening as only Gaiman can make them, and redeem any shortcomings.
 
While “The Graveyard Book” will entertain people of all ages, it’s especially a tale for children. Gaiman’s remarkable cemetery is a place that children more than anyone would want to visit. They would certainly want to look for Silas in his chapel, maybe climb down (if they were as brave as Bod) to the oldest burial chamber, or (if they were as reckless) search for the ghoul gate. Children will appreciate Bod’s occasional mistakes and bad manners, and relish his good acts and eventual great ones. The story’s language and humor are sophisticated, but Gaiman respects his readers and trusts them to understand.
