A laugh-out-loud bedtime story in which a little girl imagines what it would be like to have a vampire bat for a pet. I really want a spooky pet that flaps around and hangs. A toothy type of swoopy pet with shiny pointed fangs... Imagine if I had a... vampire bat! This charming addition to the popular If I had a... series is timed perfectly for Halloween, and features a sharp-toothed but adorable vampire bat as its main star. Taking inspiration from the Addams Family, it imagines what it would be like to live a nocturnal lifestyle and the funny scenarios one might encounter trick-or-treating or at the funfair with a vampire bat as your pal. Facts about vampire bats combine with seasonal spookiness and positive messages about dental hygiene in this brilliant book for bedtime.
