Vampires of Blinsh by Daniel Pinkwater
In this clever picture book from children's luminary Daniel Pinkwater, vampires multiply in the town of Blinsh . . . until the entire population is taken over! This picture book is an account of events that took place in the village of Blinsh, Pinksylvania, during the month of October, when one person getting bit by a vampire leads to vampires multiplying until the entire town is taken over. The result is a hilarious, cumulative tale of an outrageous chain of events that has probably resulted in YOU becoming a vampire, too.
