review 1: I never thought I'd be reading Dracula to my 4-month-old, but there you have it! BabyLit Dracula, by Little Master Stoker, is a counting primer. We encounter 1 castle perched atop a tall mountain and surrounded by 3 hoooowling wolves, 8 adorable rats ready to journey to London, 9 "boxes" (read: coffins), and 10 garlic flowers, among other delights. Pop a vampire pacifier in your baby's mouth and check it out!
review 2: When I saw there’d be a baby board book for Dracula I was very surprised and very intrigued! This doesn’t seem at all like the kind of story you’d want illustrated for a baby and toddler. What if it was too violent? But it is based off a classic and us book lovers might want to share a little enthusiasm with our little ones!I haven’t read... more the original Dracula yet, so I can’t comment on how well the adaptation works. However, the book is very mysterious and makes we want to learn more about the story, which I guess is what the authors want to achieve with their little readers as well. I didn’t mind the tombstones and “boxes” (aka coffins) but I know that might not sit well with some parents. I just think this book is so fantastic. It’s dark, mysterious, and cute all at the same time. My daughter liked it too, even though maybe she didn’t understand the significance of those tombstones and boxes. A great book! less
