About the Book
An unlikely friendship forms between a lonely girl afraid of vampires and a popular girl who secretly is one in this spookily sweet coming-of-age middle grade graphic novel perfect for fans of The Okay Witch and The Little Vampire!
Mila is absolutely terrified of vampires. Her garlic garlands and her sketchbook full of vampiric defense strategies might not protect her from teasing or bullies, but at least she’ll be safe from the bloodsucking creatures of the night.
After a cruel prank goes too far, popular girl Karla tries to make amends with a scared Mila—and they quickly become friends. It turns out they have a lot in common! The only problem? Karla is a vampire, and so is her family! Scared of what Mila might think, Karla tries to keep her identity a secret, but there’s no hiding her growing set of fangs or her inevitable transfer to vampire boarding school.
Can Karla and Mila find a way to stick together, or will their differences drive a stake through their newfound friendship?
