While their crumbling castle is being repaired, a vampire family decide to take their first vacation in over a century. Attracted by the bright artificial lights of the city, they check-in to The Palace Hotel and try their best to blend in as regular tourists. But things take a turn when they find themselves involved in a thieves' plot to steal their vampire gold.

This book is from Readerful's Independent Library. It is for children aged 10 to 11 to read without support.

Readerful is a reading library specially designed to motivate children to read more. The series offers contemporary, inclusive books for children from 4 to 11 years, including:

Books for Sharing: picture books to be read aloud by an adult for inspiring reading sessions

Independent Library: fiction, graphic texts, character mini-series and non-fiction for children to read independently

Rise: fully decodable books for older struggling readers to read independently.

How Readerful works:
- Read aloud the Books for Sharing for magical reading sessions that motivate children to read more.
- Then encourage children to choose a book to read by themselves, from Readerful's Independent Library or from Rise. You'll find links between the books' topics, vocabulary, characters and authors - all designed to keep children reading, boost their vocabulary and develop their knowledge of the world around them.
