We′ve all got wacky families, it′s just that some are wackier than others - find out just how wacky some families can be in the sixth book of this hilarious series.
Drackie is no ordinary kid. He lives on Vampire Island, where every night is dark and stormy. Soon he′ll be old enough to turn into a bat and live in his own castle.
Drackie has just had the best birthday ever. His parents have given him what he′s always secretly wished for - a toad. And not just any toad, a vampire toad, he′s called Fang.
Then the unthinkable happens, Fang is toad-napped and a ransom of $100,000 is asked for by the International Society of Toad Thieves. The only clue is a bright pink feather. A clue that leads to Auntie Chook.
But who is Auntie Chook? And why doesn′t anyone in Drackie′s family wish to talk about her?
