A funny, sassy, relatable story for readers aged 12+

Readers will enjoy the witty and moving story told in The Reluctant Vampire Queen by Jo Simmons, plus an accompanying activity pack, which we created for Parrot Street Book Club subscribers in September 2022.

“We are long-time fans of author Jo Simmons and were thrilled to find out she was publishing a book for older readers, dealing with many of the issues teens and tweens face at school and home, but with a healthy dose of humour and imagination.
~Sarah

About the book

Fifteen-year-old Mo Merrydrew isn't exactly expecting to be asked to be Vampire Queen of Great Britain when she's cycling home from school one wet Tuesday evening. Apparently, she is 'the Chosen One'. Aside from being uncomfortable with the idea of unelected power (not very democratic), there's the blood drinking to consider (Mo is a vegetarian), and frankly it's just not really the sort of role Mo's looking for (she wants to aim for a real job in politics). But then, if you're Vampire Queen, you probably don't have to do PE any more...

About the author

Jo Simmons is an author of funny fiction, including I Swapped My Brother on the Internet, which was shortlisted for the Lollies Book Awards 2020. She lives in Brighton with her family and a small scruffy dog who leaves hair absolutely everywhere.

About the activity pack

It includes stickers, book club-style questions to ponder and an exclusive welcome note from Jo Simmons. There’s also a vampire-inspired word puzzle and a recipe for a delicious Battenberg cake, alongside jokes and further reading recommendations.

Packing & postage

  • Price includes UK P&P.
  • Activity packs are a handy A5 size and printed on uncoated paper which is fully recyclable.
  • Our packs are wrapped in a simple paper sleeve and sent out in a cardboard book wrap – we would be so grateful if you could recycle both.

About Parrot Street Book Club subscriptions

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 Macaw reading group, aged roughly 12 to 14, who need books that feel grown-up but aren’t quite ready for all young adult books.
