Kevin the Vampire series
A Most Mysterious Monster
Written by Matt Brown • Illustrated by Flavia Sorrentino
Kevin is a vampire – but not as you might expect. He doesn’t drink blood, he can’t turn into a bat and he’s only eleven!
When Kevin and his family of weird and wonderful creatures get stranded in the strange, eerily quiet town of Lower Drudging, they don’t realise putting on their usual spectacular carnival is a terrible idea. They soon discover Lower Drudging has a monstrous secret of its own. A secret that is old, very hungry and has just woken up! Oops!
It’s up to Kevin to save the day. Can he prove to everyone, once and for all, that monsters aren’t the bad guys?
Brilliantly illustrated throughout in black-andwhite by Flavia Sorrentino, this new series is completely fang-tastic!
