Kevin the vampire travels with his family in the circus. When they get stuck in a boring town, they decide to put on a show to make enough money to get where they need to be. Unfortunately, there is a mysterious monster hiding in the nearby mountain and all the revelry might just wake it up!
What I Loved: There were so many fun monsters and I loved Kevin. He is just a kid with an unusual family. Susie lives with her mean aunts and she wants something exciting to happen. So when Kevin arrives she finally gets her wish. I think that both boys and girls will relate to the story and at least one of the main characters.
What Left Me Wanting More: I would have liked to have learned even more about the history of the circus and Kevin's family, but other than that, it was a very enjoyable book.
Final Verdict: An entertaining story with plenty to sink your teeth into. The characters are diverse, fun and kids will love them. I would definitely recommend it to young readers who like slightly spooky tales.
Good Points
