關於這本電子書
Everyone in Arlo's family is a vampire . . . except him. Written by actor, YouTube superstar, and advocate Miles McKenna, this funny and heartwarming story celebrates Arlo as he navigates his identity and becomes his true self.
"In this picture book, a young monster goes down a path of self-exploration. This effective allegory for the queer experience captures a child's yearning to fit in while feeling acutely different from siblings and peers. It's wonderful to see Arlo's journey occurring within the embrace of a loving family; this is both a thought-provoking delight and a balm. A sweet celebration of identity." Kirkus Reviews
"The cheerfully gothic illustrations are filled with comic detail. It also packs an evergreen message about finding and accepting your identity-and that of others." Booklist
Growing up in Pumpkin Valley, a magical town with werewolves, witches, monsters, and ghouls, Arlo is impatiently waiting to become a vampire like everyone else in his family. It's supposed to happen, but no matter what Arlo tries, nothing changes. On a magical, mystical night, Arlo finally transforms into his true self . . . which is NOT a vampire. This warm and joyful picture book by Miles McKenna and published in partnership with GLAAD, is a gorgeous and important story of acceptance, love, and celebrating who you are.
