The story primarily revolves around the boy called Nobody "Bod" Owens. His family gets brutally murdered. After their death, the boy is adopted and raised by the supernatural occupants of a graveyard. The story is said to have been inspired by several other books and stories. The story very skillfully shows a deep love for books and for reading, at the same time inspiring its readers to do the same. It is notable that the author had spent several hours every day playing in a graveyard, and he did not spend all his time in the library when he was a child. It is obvious that the book draws upon the author's own experiences in the graveyard during his childhood.Summarized & Analyzed "The Graveyard Book" Copyright Chapter One: Introduction Chapter Two: Plot Overview Chapter Three: Major Characters Nobody "Bod" Owens Silas Miss Lupescu Scarlett Amber Perkins Jack Frost and other Jacks of All Trade Chapter Four: Complete Summary Chapter Five: Critical Analysis
