PRAISE FOR ROSS COLLINS' WORK: "Ross Collins' striking illustrations combine a Winnie-the-Pooh cuddle factor with a dark imagination reminiscent of Tenniel's drawings for Alice." -- TES 20091211

Ross Collins is not a vampire but has aspirations to be one. He likes to dress in black and drink tomato juice, but the police have advised him to stop there. He is the author and illustrator of many books for children, including Medusa Jones, Busy Night, and Germs. He lurks in a haunted castle in Scotland.
