In this spooky, rhyming romp, creatures of all types work together to build a haunted house for a vampire family in need of a home.

Entertaining and enjoyable for building and critter lovers." <b>--<i>Kirkus Reviews</i></b></p><p>"This fun and friendly book will be a hit at Halloween storytimes or with monster-loving children who don't necessarily go in for frights." <b>--<i>Booklist</i></b></p><p>"A suggested first purchase, this is a richly colorful and humorous fantasy, perfect for alert and detail-oriented young readers." <b>--<i>School Library Journal</i></b></p><br>
