Blood-Thirsty Relatives Crash Drak's Birthday Party

Drak Fangula has just moved to New Jersey from Transylvania with his parents, Vladimir and Cosima Fangula. He's nervous about starting the third grade, especially since he's the only vampire at Pearson Elementary School. To fit in, he plans his birthday party with his first best friend, Jeremy Muniz, and invites four other classmates: Brendan, Chris, Steven, and Doug.However, moments before his guests start to arrive, Drak's eccentric aunt and uncle pull up in a hearse with their three obnoxious, spastic children--Vincent, Ella, and Margaret Chompulas. Unlike the Fangulas, these wayward relatives prefer "fresh" blood over the bottled kind the Fangulas purchase from the blood bank. How will Drak save his friends from being the Chompulas' next meal without ruining his own birthday party?"Drak's Slumber Party" is great for 7 to 10-year-old boys who like vampires but don't necessarily want to read very much (it's only 54 pages with a few illustrations). If you liked this one, you might also like the following books in the Monster Kids series: "Frank's Field Trip", "Harry Goes to Camp", "Boris Bigfoot's Big Feat", "The Curse of Cleo Patrick's Mummy", and "Zelda's Zombie Dance".
