A monstrously funny story for younger readers aged 5+
Newly independent readers will laugh out loud at Kevin the Vampire: A Most Mysterious Monster by Matt Brown and illustrated by Flavia Sorrentino, plus they'll have fun with the accompanying activity pack which we created for Parrot Street Book Club subscribers in October 2023.
“Kevin the Vampire is a fun, imaginative chapter book perfect for younger readers. It's packed with surprises and the detailed illustrations mean there's always something to look at. Plus there's a lovely message at the heart of the story which young readers will really relate to. Perfect Halloween reading!”

Kevin Aurelius is just like any other almost eleven-year-old.
Well, apart from his fangs obviously. And that he's immortal. Oh and did I mention he's a vampire?
Together with his vampire parents and annoying older siblings, Kevin's on his way to Monstros City when, due to dodgy batnav, they get stranded in a strange, quiet place full of humans called Lower Drudging. With empty coffers in need of filling, their only choice is to put on an impromptu carnival to earn the gold they need to get back on their way.
But Lower Drudging has a monstrous secret of its own. A secret that is old, very hungry and has just woken up! It's up to Kevin and his new best friend Susie to save the town - or else!
Matt Brown is an author and broadcaster based in the UK. He has written eight books for children, including Mutant Zombies Cursed My School Trip which won the FCBG Children's Book Award in 2020. He is a passionate promoter of reading for pleasure in schools as well as an advocate of saving public libraries.
The activity pack includes book club-style questions to ponder, facts about circuses and a recipe for Halloween s'mores, alongside stickers, jokes and further reading recommendations. Create your own alphabet, design a monster fact file and have fun with our vampire bookmark craft project too!

We are a monthly book subscription by post for children aged 5 to 14, focused on helping families discover new and different chapter books.
This title was sent to subscribers in the Parakeet reading group, aged roughly 5 to 8, who are emerging or newly independent readers. Many in this group prefer to listen to the books being read aloud by an adult.
