From the very first bite, Vampire Jam Sandwich is a hilariously spooky treat that both kids and parents will enjoy! If you're a fan of Dragons Love Tacos or Frank Was a Monster Who Wanted to Dance, this clever picture book will feel right at home in your collection.

The story? A vampire—possibly named Terrence—sinks his fangs into a jam sandwich, only to create a ... Vampire ... Jam ... Sandwich! This undead snack isn’t your ordinary PB&J—it’s cursed to roam from one unsuspecting kitchen to the next, always on the lookout for more jam. Is your pantry safe? Probably not. The premise is delightfully absurd, and kids will eat up every squishy, spooky detail.

Casey Lyall masterfully pulls off silly humor for the little ones and an unreliable narrator for the adult readers, with plenty of surprises to keep everyone laughing.

With its playful wordplay, delightfully silly premise, and a storyline that's completely unique, this book is an instant hit for bedtime or story time.
I highly recommend adding it to your bookshelf. Just, you know, keep an eye on your jam jar (and that sneaky narrator). 🩸🍞
