A great way to train for reading books in English for children.

I read this book around the same time as _Alice in Wonderland: A BabyLit Colors Primer_ and I loved it. The book is fun and still educational without being too overwhelming for your learners. I could see there being criticisms on how the book might be too scary for young readers, but it's really quite cartoony with some darker colors. I could also see how fans of Stoker's book would be unhappy because it's not exactly the original story, but I don't think that needs to be worried about either. Much like the _Alice_ book, this primer gives hints and references to the original story that will work to entertain the adults reading the book alongside a young reader, or fans may appreciate this cute adaptation for what it is. I would definitely recommend this as well as the other book options from this company.

Love this series! Van Helsing is just as I have imagined him. Definitely for the parent with a love for literature.

I have seen various Goodreads giveaways for Jennifer Adams' Babylit books and was excited to finally win one. Dracula arrived with perfect timing, the day before Halloween. Even though my son is a little to old for counting board books, he still liked it, I mean it is Dracula after all. I will be passing this on to a friend of mine after his son is born and I won't hesitate to buy other BabyLit books in the future as gifts or for any future children of my own.

I mean, BabyLit forever, man. These books are the perfect kind of tongue-in-cheek references that will elicit a wry chuckle from parents (well, well-read parents at least) yet aren't too obscure for children to enjoy on their own level. And no, this one is not too scary for kids at all -- despite its source material. :)

This is absolutely adorable and great for teaching your little Babybat both how to count and the basic elements of a celebrated literary classic. I don't have any kids, but I just had to buy this book anyway. It is now sitting on my shelf waiting...
