Kevin the Vampire: A Most Mysterious Monster—
$9.58
The Story
A fang-tastically funny, wholly original adventure, featuring black-and-white illustrations by Flavia Sorrentino. Meet eleven-year-old Kevin Aurelius. He's just like every other kid . . . except he's a vampire, lives in a traveling circus full of zany monsters, and his best friend is a dragon named Brannie.
When Kevin's family's circus, Carnival Monstromo, runs out of money and gets stranded in a boring town full of humans, their only choice is to earn gold by putting on an impromptu show for the town's residents.
There's a BIG problem though. Seventy years ago, a scary monster called the You-Know-What destroyed the town and, ever since, they have a strict no-monsters policy. When noise from the circus wakes up the creature, the townspeople are furious at Kevin and his family. Now, the You-Know-What is on the loose and out for blood. Can Kevin and his new friend, a human girl named Susie, stop the monster, and save the town before all is lost?
