[Efox · Rating 4 out of 5]

This might be my favorite book of the series so far! Vlad's cousin comes to visit from Transylvania - at first Vlad doesn't like Lupus at all - he's the vampire that his parents wish he was, the kids at school all think Lupus is amazing, etc. - but the two young vampires soon learn that first impressions are not always what they seem, and end up becoming really good friends.

Just so much to like about this book and about the importance of peers in our lives. I really enjoyed the whole thing and I loved the way Vlad and Lupus became friends and helped each other. Also my 5 year old loved the book too. She's super into spooky things and this book is perfectly spooky but not scary.

My son is loving this series, especially since he is in the mood for a Halloween read, but nothing too spooky.

Book #3 in the series.
Another cute vampire story that follows Vlad as he practices some of his vampire skills, while his cousin Lupus is visiting.
