Product Description
Synopsis
Can a vampire ever be cuddly? Can a vampire be a vegetarian? Author and illustrator Chris White thinks so, and to prove it, this collection of children's poems features Bitey, the Veggie Vampire, as well as a bestiary of his buddies such as Stumpy the one-legged pigeon and "Henry the Bald Caterpillar". But it's not all fun for fun's sake: children should also be interested in the environmental lessons in "Ted's Bad Dream", where the author manages to discuss pollution without being too preachy, or "Dragon for Hire", or the exploits of "Gerald the Pig", goalkeeper, postman, fireman, but in the end, content just to be...well, a pig actually. Finally, for those who wondered, Chris lets his readers into the secret of why you shouldn't give a duck a pen (or feed them cheese and wine, for that matter).
