The Vampire Boy is a tale about stereotypes, misfits, friendship and the joys of the simple pleasures of life.

Kris is a not a normal Vampire boy. But ‘normal’ boys and girls have their own ideas about a Vampire boy. These pre-conceived notions give rise to a lot of situations- both funny and poignant. Kris’ own reactions to being the first and only vampire boy at school are woven in to make for a delightful narrative.

Rich in minute details and complemented by descriptive illustrations, this book by first time author Sharanya Deepak will entertain young readers while giving them something to think about.

Certainly worth a read.
