The Newbery Award for 2009 is The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman for his story of an "average" boy named Nobody Owens who happens to be raised by ghosts. Gaiman is also the author of Coraline, the spooky book about a girl who walks through the door in her house to find an alternate world where her "other" family is waiting. Past Newbery Awards for distinguished contribution in children's literature can also be found on the ALA website.
