Welcome to Litsy!

The graphic novel version of The Graveyard Book is done in 2 volumes so it doesn‘t have to cut content from the storyline. It has a number of contributing artists on the project, but the main illustrator is someone Gaiman has partnered with before on 3 of the Sandman volumes, so the style is familiar. While I definitely enjoyed this adaptation, for me it didn‘t quite rival the print version of one of my favorite Gaiman titles.

I‘ve only read the children‘s book, but I‘m hoping to get to this graphic novel this weekend. Yay, for 3 day weekends! 🎉

Absolutely stunning artwork in this one! I just finished the first half, and am really enjoying it so far. Unfortunately my old lady eyes are straining with the small panel writing, so I‘m taking a little break before picking up with volume 2.

Just picked these up! Went with the graphic novel adaptation vs the novel edition. The only work I've read by Neil Gaiman before is Coraline which I loved (book and film). Stoked to read these 😁

I listened to The Graveyard book a few years ago with the kiddos. The Graphic Novel version is a lot of fun! Loved the illustrations to accompany the story. I‘m not a big GN reader and have been wondering why there is a different illustrator for each chapter? The illustrations were similar but different. I put volume 2 on hold.

This graphic novel is an excellent addition to the Neil Gaiman novel. It's a strong story that translates well to this story form!

This was so good. The story was really amazing and the graphics are incredible.

Graphic novel told in 2 parts of a toddler who escapes a macabre scene because he has a habit of wandering. When he wanders into a graveyard with the killer on his heels, the ghosts protect him and give him shelter. He becomes Nobody or Bod Owens. This is part one.

I love this novel but haven't read it in awhile. The graphic novel felt like a worthy adaptation though I wish the two volumes were combined. The chapters read like short stories and feature the work of different artists which works well! Was the novel so segmented?? My copy is back in the States but hopefully I'll have a chance to read it with babe soon. #mommyreads #graphicnovel #adaptation #ebook #ghosts
