Svetlana Grimm and the Circle of Red

Eleven-year-old Stephanie is sure that she’s different from the other kids her age. She’s convinced that she is actually a vampire, and therefore must eat only red foods, sleep underneath her bed (since her parents won’t buy her a coffin) and go by the more appropriate vampireish name of Svetlana Grimm. But then Svetlana’s new next-door neighbour lets her in on a very big secret: Svetlana isn’t a vampire at all, she’s a vampire hunter and a member of the Circle of Red… whether she likes it or not! And what’s more, it’s up to Svetlana to stop the town vampire – who happens to be her science teacher – from sucking her classmates dry! Will Svetlana be able to help the Circle of Red avoid disaster?

This is a funny debut novel for middle grade readers, full of action and attitude.
