The best-selling novel was published in 2008 and won several prestigious literary awards, including the American Newberry Medal. Gaiman’s source material tells the story of Nobody “Bod” Owen, a young boy who is raised by the ghosts and supernatural beings of a graveyard – including, the graveyard’s caretaker Silas – after his family is murdered.

Palacio and starring Helen Mirren and Gillian Anderson and A Man Called Otto starring Tom Hanks for Sony Pictures. Wolfe exec produced both those films.
