One “Fangtabulous” Children’s Book

Leslie Muir, author of The Little Bitty
Bakery, has done it again—she’s published a well-told and cleanly designed
children’s book with laser-like focus and a touch of whimsy. Gibbus
Moony Wants to Bite You!, illustrated by Jen Corace in beautiful watercolor
and pen-and-ink, is a nimble story for the 4-8 years-old crowd. —

Little ones will delight in the wholesome tale of Gibbus
Moony—a young vampire who has lost his baby teeth and now has big boy fangs
that he’s ready to test out. But before he gets to take a bite out of his first
juicy victim, Gibbus learns that his family only nibbles on fruit. The horror!

Without giving the story away, young readers will learn an
important lesson on growing up. (Basically, biting is for babies!) So let your
wee one cut her teeth (so to speak) on this new picture book while “sharpening” her reading skills.
