SYNOPSIS ....
Ock Von Fiend doesn't have many friends because, well, he's a vampire. When he gets down about being different, Ock remembers the advantages - super hearing, night vision, vanishing power, and how cool are those teeth?
Ock Von Fiend lives on the outskirts of town and doesn't have many friends because, well, he's a vampire who tends to want to bite people. Luckily he has his teddy Van Munster (who has lately been possessed by a demon), the neighbourhood werewolf, his part-monkey undead grandfather, and his music to keep him busy. But that isn't to say that he wouldn't like to meet a nice lady vampire - know anyone? This playful and affectionate character study of Ock the lonely vampire is sumptuously illustrated with humorous and original characters by a talented new author.
Very Interesting & Entertaining read!
Reviews
it was amazing …. This is the most amazing picture book I have ever encountered.
A book that humanises vampires to children and makes them not so scary, but lovable.
The pictures add more to the story, like "biting on special occasions" having him hiding in a Christmas hat.
I giggled and gasped my way through this.
Any alternative parent MUST have this book for their child.
It was amazing
Five Stars ….Super cute! It's a book I read when I want to smile. Light, funny, and Vampires; what more do I need?
really liked it …. This book was clever and witty.
“Self-esteem” issues .. Rose ran off with a Zombie … lots to appreciate about this.
This was amazing … A cute yet quirky book that I will be sure to read to my children.
Marvellous Reading!
