Dear Vampa

The Pires are cursed with new neighbors.

Things were just fine on Nostfer Avenue until the Wolfsons arrived. Young Bram sends dispatch after dispatch to his Vampa in Transylvania, desperate to report the growing list of horrors. Who hosts a housewarming party without offering their guests a single drop to drink?

There seems to be no end to the new family's strange rituals. They stay up all day long, lock their windows at night, and bathe—in sunshine. What's a nice vampire family to do?

How is a respectable creature supposed to rest when the household next door makes noise all day? To make matters worse, the new arrivals had the nerve to grumble when Mom invited her nocturnal friends over.

Ross Collins has created an ironic, laugh-out-loud story that invites you to think about accepting others—perhaps your neighbors are less different than you think.
