Kamakan the Vampire Slug

The Rip-roaring Children's Adventure Rhyme

by Huw Roberts

 

Dear Teacher,

Welcome to Kamakan The Vampire Slug!

This pack contains information for teachers and extracts to read to pupils. Below you will find:

	an introduction to the story
	three extracts
	mini-monster rhymes
	pictures to colour

 

The book is highly recommended for reading aloud in class. Being an exciting adventure rhyme Kamakan The Vampire Slug engages children's interest in an entertaining way whilst giving plenty to ignite their imaginations. It works particularly well when children take turns reading it aloud, but teachers are very much enjoying reading it to the children themselves.

The central message of the book is about looking after your brothers and sisters, but it is primarily a fun, challenging and captivating read for children and adults.

Teacher's copies of Kamakan The Vampire Slug are available through the publisher Discovered Authors (contact details on front page). It is also available to buy via the usual internet outlets and can be ordered from most book shops. Please feel free to contact me or Discovered Authors if you'd like to discuss a school project.

I hope you and your pupils enjoy Kamakan and I hope to hear from you soon.

Best wishes,

Huw Roberts

Review Discovered Authors, June 2006 "What a fantastically original work - full of imagination and completely engaging. What a wonderful adventure rhyme for children and adults alike." Reader Review, Feb 2007 “This book is creepy and funny at the same time, with a very original and imaginative story, and the images are little masterpieces. It's one of those books you pick up to look at again and again, and every time I do so I discover new details both in the images and the rhymes.” Reader Review, Feb 2007   Review Daily Post Feb 2007 "Huw Roberts has served up a vivid, earthy, gothic tale (wonderfully illustrated by SB King) which will delight youngsters and adults alike with its splendidly yucky imagery and spicy language. Earwig sauce anyone?"
