Meet the Gorys -- a fangtastic vampire family. The Gorys are just like any other family...apart from the fact that they are vampires. The children, Val and Vlad go to Cemetery High Junior School, while Mrs Gory looks after baby Vasha at home. Mr Gory is always dead on his feet after a day at the undertaker's, and he loves to come home to have supper with Mrs Gory and the children. Next time you are in the neighbourhood, why not drop in for a bite? The Gorys are one family out of a range of spooky new characters created by the internationally renowned author and illustrator team, Colin and Jacqui Hawkins. Hilarious text and illustrations combine to put the giggles into Halloween for 2-5 year olds.
