Sara Newman's new children's book 'My Mommy Is a Vampire' uses humor and imagination to explore family love and acceptance, drawing from treasured family stories and dedicated to her grandmother.

Author Sara Newman has released a new children's picture book, My Mommy Is a Vampire, inspired by treasured family stories passed down through generations. The book, published in New York, transforms playful bedtime storytelling into a whimsical narrative that celebrates unconditional love with humor and imagination.
Dedicated to her grandmother, Norma Dombroff, the book serves as both an entertaining story for today's children and a lasting tribute that preserves cherished family memories for future generations. Newman explains that the story began as playful bedtime storytelling: "Those funny family moments eventually grew into a story that children everywhere could enjoy."
The story follows a child whose vampire mother struggles with ordinary daytime life but never hesitates to put her child first. Through imaginative scenes filled with comedy and warmth, readers discover an important truth: love is measured by sacrifice, not appearances. Parents will recognize familiar emotions—children feeling embarrassed by their parents, parents making extraordinary efforts for their children, and families learning to embrace one another despite imperfections.
Educators have long recognized the importance of stories that encourage empathy and emotional understanding. My Mommy Is a Vampire uses fantasy to explore universal experiences children face every day: wanting to fit in, feeling different, and ultimately realizing that family love is something to celebrate. The book offers opportunities for conversations about family diversity, acceptance, gratitude, empathy, emotional resilience, and celebrating individuality.
While vampires have traditionally appeared as frightening characters in popular culture, Newman turns the familiar legend upside down by creating a mother whose greatest superpower isn't immortality—it's unconditional love. With humor, heart, and memorable storytelling, My Mommy Is a Vampire reminds readers that every family has its own quirks, and those differences often become life's greatest treasures.
