There are plenty of references for adults to enjoy, Anderson's witty employ of language makes this a laugh-out-loud story for all ages to enjoy. I'm not going to lie, I've bought the whole of this series without having even read the blurb purely based on the beautiful cover and sprayed edges, and the fact that I love Laura Ellen Anderson's illustrations. You can forget all the rumours about vampires not having reflections, as Amelia’s mother just loves hers! The drawings were great too with a lot of detail for each character with elaborate costumes for the cast of the book. Amelia is delighted that she will not be the only child to attend her parents’ annual Barbaric Ball at Fang Mansions.

Amelia very quickly captures you heart and so too do her quirky companions; a yeti, a mini grim reaper, and a pet pumpkin (who is an absolute cutie and I want one!Ovo bi bila apsolutno savršena knjiga za moju savršeno uvrnutu ćerku, ali mene lično jako muči kada su roditelji u pričama za decu ovoliko isključeni, odsutni (i to više psihički nego fizički), pa čak i aktivno negativna sila u životu svoje dece. This made me quite sad since the book is meant for kids who are easily influenced by factors such the books they read and even though parents are not always "positive figures" they definitely shouldn't be antagonised in children's literature. The thing is that there wasn't even an attempt to talk thing out - it's quite important to show children that thing can be resolved by speaking up. I haven't charted out my visits for the summer term, but I'm sure there are several in the south) and thanks so much for being so fantastic! Bronnie is so lovely with the boys and we also felt that having a man enthusing about the books set a great example.
