"My Dad is a Zombie" is a charming novel that draws readers into Liam's world as he finds the world topsy turvy and his father a zombie with a permanent death sentence if Liam doesn't save his soul from the Land of the Dead. The well-written novel has a fast-paced, energetic and vibrant writing style that makes readers want to delve even deeper into the mystery of how zombies are taking over his little part of the world and just how he and Lupe are going to save not only his father, but all of Lemon Grove and the world at large from a zombie infestation as well.Deborah Bravandt does a wonderful job of weaving a story that is fun, humorous, packed with friendship and bravery in the face of fear, and makes for an engaging read from start to finish. The story features vivid illustrations that really bring the novel to life, adding dimension and world-building to this unique tale one page at a time. This is the kind of children's novel that both kids and adults alike would appreciate as it sucks you in and takes you on a thrilling supernatural supernatural adventure. Overall, it was well worth the read and it left me eager to see what else Mr. Bravandt writes in the future.
