Publisher Description
Is a vampire still a vampire if his fang is all wobbly? Find out in this funny and endearing spin on the classic first lost tooth story.
Young Dracula loves his fangs. They are pointy. They are sharp! They are a cherished family trait.
So one day, when a fang wiggles…and jiggles…and falls loose, Dracula doesn’t know what to do.
He tries pushing it back in. Then taping it. Then sticking it.
Because a vampire can’t have only one fang!…Right?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Vampires they're just like humans! At least that's the case in Miller's comics-style picture book about young Dracula losing his first fang. When one of his beloved pointy fangs falls out, he stresses, trying everything he knows to push it back in. Later that night, his sadness and embarrassment over being a one-fanged vampire turn into downright panic when a glowing fairy flits over to his coffin bed to retrieve the prized item clutched in his hand ("She is stealing my fang!"). Drac's calm and kindly parents Dad clad in vampire-bunny slippers set him straight, and thanks to quick vampire healing, he's not fangless for long. Miller's simple cartoons flow across boldly colored panels spotlighting the humorous details of Dracula's day (a blood juice box at the school lunch table with a yeti and a witch; bat pajamas and a coffin bed). The large font mostly in red and spare, exclamatory text will entice beginning readers, who may well have a wiggly fang, er, tooth, of their own. Ages 4 8.
