The Tiny Vampire Tales – Paperback

Even a tiny vampire must grow up someday.

Count Orlok has lived for nearly five thousand years. In all that time, he has witnessed some extraordinary things. Yet few have given him quite as much pleasure as watching his beloved niece, Lucia, grow from a mischievous little vampire into a remarkable young woman.

Lucia is just nine years old when her parents decide to leave their ancestral castle in Transylvania and begin a new life in England. Surrounded by a loving family but unfamiliar with the ways of human children, she faces the exciting-and occasionally frightening-prospect of making friends of her own age.

Fortunately, friendship arrives in the most unexpected forms.

There is Clara, a young werewolf with adventures of her own, and Jenny, a witch whose remarkable talents bring another dimension to their unusual little circle.

Together, the three girls discover a world of friendship, mischief, laughter and adventure, navigating the challenges of growing up while keeping their extraordinary identities a closely guarded secret.

Through four interconnected tales, told with affection and gentle humour by Count Orlok himself, readers follow Lucia’s journey from childhood through adolescence and into adulthood, discovering that even vampires must learn about friendship, responsibility, loyalty and, eventually, the unexpected delights of falling in love.

A warm, funny and enchanting supernatural coming-of-age adventure for young adult readers and anyone who remembers the magic of growing up.

Because having fangs can make life considerably more interesting.
