About the Book:
After the grisly murder of his entire family, a toddler wanders into a graveyard where the ghosts and other supernatural residents agree to raise him as one of their own.
Nobody Owens, known to his friends as Bod, is a normal boy. He would be completely normal if he didn't live in a sprawling graveyard, being raised and educated by ghosts, with a solitary guardian who belongs to neither the world of the living nor of the dead. There are dangers and adventures in the graveyard for a boy. But if Bod leaves the graveyard, then he will come under attack from the man Jack&#;who has already killed Bod's family
My Review:
This is my first book by Gaiman and I have already become a devoted fan eagerly devouring his other works. I loved it so much that it is hard to put down the feeling in words. The life in the graveyard envelops us the moment we open this novel and trust me . . . you will never want it to end!!! If this is what happens after death I don't mind dying that much. Of course, I need to make sure to have a family grave of my own!!!

Evil Enters From the Left: On Pantomime and the Classic Stage
“Give me the lamp, boy!”
My grandfather’s voice was quiet, which was more frightening than if he’d shouted. He moved towards me, one hand stretched out, his shadow making fantastical shapes on the wall.
“Give me the lamp…”
This isn’t a shocking story of abuse, though it is a Grimm’s fairy tale of sorts. My grandfather was an actor and he was famous for playing Abanazar in the pantomime, Aladdin. In real life Grandad was a lovely, soft-spoken man but, in character, his darkly handsome face could easily be made up to look villainous. It was a great bedtime treat for him to act out this scene for me and my sisters. On stage it would be even more frightening, with green smoke billowing and fire-crackers concealed in Abanazar’s copious sleeves.
“Give me the lamp.” Crack of thunder. Roll of drums.
The baddie, or Demon King, in panto has a long and interesting history. The word pantomime comes from the Roman word, pantomimus: panto meaning all, mimus, a dancer. Therefore a Roman pantomime was a performance by a solo male dancer. Pantomime, as we know it, has its origins in the late Middle Ages and the Italian tradition of
