So, I don't like to write too much about books because, if I recommend them, I hope that you become interested in reading them and I don't want to spoil it for you. Here is a great, quick read that I recommend. I found The Graveyard Book on a friend's goodreads list when I was looking for a book to put in Joe's Christmas stocking. He really liked it and couldn't wait for me to read it to so we could talk about it. I too enjoyed it. There's a bit of mystery to it, though each chapter is supposed to be a story in itself. Considering the title, it is not creepy or a thriller, though there are a few eerie parts. I was intrigued and entertained by all the different levels of life and death, comfort and longing, hope and despair that were illustrated in different characters and scenarios. Go get yourself a copy and hand on to it because you're kids will feel like they've discovered a treasure when they get to reading this.
