The classic laugh-out-loud horror that inspired the hit BBC series Young Dracula, in an gloriously illustrated hi-lo format.

Before Count Dracula became one of the greatest, most feared vampires of all time, he was just a young boy called Wilfred who didn't really feel like he belonged anywhere. But Wilfred's dad, the old Count, doesn't think his son is up to the task of being a great vampire! Can Wilfred show his father what he's really made of?

Particularly suitable for readers aged 7+ with a reading age of 7.
