The Night I Was Chased By a Vampire
Keren Ludlow
(Orion Children's Books)
978-1858812465, RRP £2.99, Paperback
8-10 Junior/Middle
A short story told in verse, with a howlingly corny ending, that manages not only to be very, very funny but begs the reader to do the most horrendous Pam Ayres impressions! The strange and sinister castle won't fool anyone, yet you're in for the biggest shock of all on the last page. I read this to 115 Year 5s at an end of term assembly and they were so keen I had to read it twice. Powerful stuff, indeed.
