The book is divided into Four major sections:
What is a Vampire?
Myths and Legends
The Rise of the Vampire
The Modern Myth
And in 87 pages (not counting Glossary, Index, More to Explore...) it covers just about every aspect of vampires that you can think of. The book talks about origins, versions in different cultures, how to become one, how to kill one, how they've changed appearance over the centuries, how they are treated in literature, their 'evolution' in literature and the movies... up to and including references to the Twilight series.
And while the information is interesting, what really makes this book is the presentation. The pages are gorgeous, graphic, thick and slick. There is not a single page with 'just' text. Instead each page explodes with color, has drawings or photos, multiple fonts, and all sorts of cool kid-friendly ways of presenting the information, and keeping kids attention.
Written at the 4th Grade level (no exact AR month is available at this time), might I suggest this for your inquisitive child.
