Can a vampire and a mummy learn to share?

Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

PreS-Gr 1-This tale of friendship unfolds in three short stories written with simple phrases and strong dialogue. Youngsters will laugh as "spooky friends"-Scarlet, a green, pigtailed vampire (complete with pet bat), and Igor, a tubby mummy-find solutions to their capricious disagreements: "If Igor wanted to read, Scarlet wanted to sing. If Scarlet wanted to nap, Igor wanted to dance." Characters mirror preschoolers' emotional understanding of friendship and each of the stories provides a lighthearted plot as Scarlet and Igor learn that no matter what disagreements ensue, working things out together is even better. Colored font depicts heightened emotions while warm-hued, playful illustrations entertain emerging readers and provide ample context for comprehension and fluency. This is a great selection for those looking for delightful rather than frightful Halloween books, titles on friendship, or general early-reader collections.-Melissa Smith, Royal Oak Public Library, MIα(c) Copyright 2013.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inviting and Obtainable: Rare Combination in Early Readers
Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2013
My first grader and I just finished reading this book and we fell in love. I wish all early reader books were this engaging. It was neither too easy nor too hard and was very creative. The text, though simple, was well written and the illustrations were fun and beautiful. If you have a kid learning to read this is a great book! I hope we see more of Scarlet and Igor in the future.

Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2013
This is a wonderful book about friendship; sharing and resolving conflicts. The adorable and original characters of Scarlet and Igor make these delightful easy-to- read stories a book for all year round! My daughter can't put it down. She is already wearing her hair in pigtails. More, please......

Un livre simple et permettant de revoir les terminaisons des verbes au passé. C'est très bien pour les débutants français qui apprennent l'anglais.
