Little Vampire Does Kung Fu!

Rating:
Summary: nothing quite like it!
Review: Now here's a rare treat... A clever, zany romp in the continuing adventures of Little Vampire. It's an unpredictable, rambling adventure, brimming with inventiveness and full of heart -- and it's a comic book. Kids 6 and up will find lots to delight in, but it's aimed at the 10 and up, who will revel in the wit and exuberant artwork. I'd bet the books in the Little Vampire series become classics in no time. Definitely nothing else like these.
Be sure and get the first book LITTLE VAMPIRE GOES TO SCHOOL if your young reader doesn't have it already. One of the few books he or she will rank higher than most video games.

Summary: I would not recommend it.
Review: Ultimately, I think this book attempts to show the futility of fighting in order to resolve disagreements. But it uses rather violent images and notions to deliver this message including: revenge killing, cannibalism, religious mysticism, etc. This book could serve to desensitize young readers to the pain and suffering of others, in the same way that violent <a href="http://www.ntsearch.com/search.php?q=video&v=56">video</a> <a href="http://www.ntsearch.com/search.php?q=games&v=56">games</a> and the gratuitous violence in the <a href="http://www.ntsearch.com/search.php?q=news&v=56">news</a> and <a href="http://www.ntsearch.com/search.php?q=entertainment&v=56">entertainment</a> media are apt to do.
