VAMPIRE VACATION

Fang isn't like the other vampires. Will he be able to make his dreams of a beach vacation come true?

The last thing Fang wants is another vacation in Transylvania. He's toured Dracula's castle and the coffin museum enough for an eternal lifetime. Why can't he spend the summer swimming and surfing like his other friends? When his parents refuse, Fang decides to convince them that fun at the beach is possible, even for a family of vampires.

Laura Lavoie's clever text and Micah Player's devilishly fun illustrations are the perfect pairing for this hilarious picture book that captures the joy of having new adventures and staying true to yourself.

Key selling points
MEET FANG: More over, Vampirina and Vlad the Rad, there's a new vampire in town.
FAMILY STORY: At its heart, Vampire Vacation is about being open to new experiences and the family you take along for the ride. It's perfect for summer reading and a fresh take on Halloween books.
BE TRUE TO YOURSELF: Fang is the Hawaiian-shirt-wearing, beach-loving, vampire surfer dude we didn't know we needed. He defies the classic vampire tropes and marches to the beat of his own drum.
PLAYFUL TONE: The playful illustrations and clever text come together to create a story about being open to trying new things, with plenty of vampire puns along the way.
