Grade 3-6-- Meg and Trevor Swain have a new babysitter named Vincent Graver, and they're not happy with him. In fact, they are certain he's a vampire, and do research on how to get rid of him. Hodgeman's writing style is excellent, building suspense chapter after chapter, blending it with humor as the two children trail Vincent, doing whatever they can to make him disappear. This is a good read, and kids will love it. Buy several copies for Halloween bookshelves. --Alice Cronin, Ocean County Library System, NJ
Moose Island doesn't have many babysitters, so Med and Trevor Swain figure they'll have to put up with what they get. But when weird Vincent Graver shows up at their front door, they know they're in for big trouble. Whoever heard of a babysitter who has pointy little teeth, carries a mysterious red liquid around in a bottle, and doesn't like pizza?
