About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is fascinated by secrets, loves to organize their world through collections, or is starting to explore the spooky-fun side of storytelling. It is an excellent choice for a child who feels a little different and wants to celebrate their unique quirks through a playful, non-threatening lens. Plaxie Wishbone, the titular Little Vampire, invites readers into her private world through a diary format that emphasizes creativity and personal expression. While the book uses vampire tropes like coffins and dead bugs, the tone is purely humorous and imaginative rather than scary. It encourages children to document their own lives, hobbies, and family traditions by showing how even a vampire deals with relatable things like school reports and secret maps. It is a highly interactive experience, perfect for elementary-aged readers who enjoy uncovering hidden layers in a story.
