Summary:
"Vampires are the subject of some of our favorite spooky stories to tell and movies to watch. The myth of vampires--and other creatures like them--has existed for hundreds of years, but perhaps the most famous one of all got his start a little more recently. In this book, young readers will learn all about Dracula, the famous subject of the 1897 novel by Irish author Bram Stoker, as well as the real-life prince from the 1400s named Vlad III on whom Dracula was based. The text includes informative fact boxes and accessible language to excite and engage young readers"--Provided by publisher.
