A vampire and his monster friends are excited to have some fun in the sun—but they’re thwarted by beachgoers who insist that Halloween belongs in the fall! The spooky friends do their best to turn everyone’s summer festivities into a monster mash, but the feuding between fans of Halloween and fans of summertime soon reaches a boiling point. Can the groups find a way to have double the fun? A Summerween party might be the perfect solution!

Praise for Leprechaun vs. Easter Bunny:
-
* "Hilarious brinkmanship that will have audiences rolling.... This laugh-out-loud picture book should be a staple for all children’s libraries holiday sections."School Library Journal, starred review
-
"Riotously funny...will have readers giggling all year long. Skilled storytellers will enjoy hamming up the action as the characters attempt to assert their dominance over their hillside home. Slapstick fun for any season."Kirkus
-
"Tarpley’s rigorously rhyming text sustains high levels of animation-style one-upmanship throughout, and Laberis’s digital artwork gets all the seasonal imagery right, with eggs, baskets, gold coins, tulips, and hearts strewn across the green grass, and four-leaf clovers under a rainbow’s glow."Publishers Weekly
