Bob The Vampire Snail

Just finished reading "Bob The Vampire Snail" by Andrea Zuill, published by Random House.
Perhaps one of the forgotten points of trivia about "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" is that there is an printing that was run with an "adult" cover over in England to let "older readers" hide the fact that they were reading a "Children's Book."
Why am I mentioning this? While there is no stigma against an adult writing for children - I have written hundreds of non-fiction articles for children magazines - there is a stigma against older readers buying and enjoying children's books. Once a woman actually called the police on me at the Barnes & Noble near my house because she saw me buying children's books. [Yes if it's weird and it can happen, it will eventually happen to me - weirdness magnet here.]
Andrea Zuill has created a whimsical gothic tale about an ordinary snail, named Bob, who is suddenly turned into a vampire and how he adapts to his new found situation. Zuill has created a new sardonic take on traditional vampire troupes while mixing in fun facts about snails.
Great Fun!
