What I love about this book (other than the great illustration of a vampire flying over a house) is the little boy who catalogues every mistake his mother has ever made - I think I recognize myself in that boy, but then I'm also the mother.

Explains alot of my childhood... next to the Indiana Jones Trilogy, would have had the second greatest impact on me if I had read this as a child...

This was a strangely unsettling book to me as a child. I'd like to find a copy now and flip through it.
