Very engaging and interesting to read, illustrations were nice. - K.S.

 I was originally turned off by the cover - it felt serious and foreboding - but sooo glad I didn't set it aside. What a great story with colorful watercolor illustrations and a good dose of humor. I got a great chuckle out of it! The story is written in rhyme and follows an easy to read meter. - Victoria S.

 Told in rhyme, the story has a lovely humor and is easy to read and follow.
The
illustrations are very well done and I love this watercolor style.

Vampires are not my favorite in general, but I am sure there are many children out there to enjoy this book. - Ausita

 This story was cute and written in rhyme. Kiddos enjoyed it. We liked the watercolor illustrations. The digital art took a little bit away from the awesome backgrounds, but understand why styles were mixed. We liked that the main character tried different things before being able to complete his quest. - Wrong Tux 

 This is the kind of book that children will want to read over and over again. Their imaginations will be captured by its whimsical, magical, fantastical fun! - Louise Jane, CEO The Golden Wizard Book Prize 

 An exciting story that focuses on determination and self-discovery. The story incorporates flowing and rhyming language to enhance the reader’s experience of flying along with Silas the vampire. The story offers readers vibrant watercolor illustrations filled with great amounts of detail which creates an excitement to see what designs will be on the next page. This story's theme teaches readers to go the extra mile to reach a goal and the great discoveries they may find along the way. - LitPick Book Review

Samples

Sample Excerpt 1:


Once upon a time, in a spooky old castle, 

A vampire named Silas, had quite the hassle. 


He was a vampire, yes, with teeth white and long, 

But something was amiss, his teeth were all wrong.


Sample Excerpt 2:


Silas was determined, he wouldn't give in, 

He set off on a quest, with a wide vampire grin. 


He searched high and low, through forest and glen, 

Yet the Tooth Fairy eluded him again and again.


Sample Excerpt 3:


Silas felt a tingle, as the magic took hold, 

And suddenly, his teeth were sharp and bold.


Now Silas's fangs were perfect, his smile a delight, 

He thanked the Tooth Fairy with all of his might.
