I need some ideas please! This project was given to me yesterday: Rewrite Dracula, by Bram Stoker, into a child appropriate picture book. Absolutely no blood, prefer no actual death and at most rated PG-13.

So far I have that everyone is ladybugs and instead of getting drained of blood their spots are being stolen. When they get sick they turn grey, when they die they can't fly, but i don't know what to do when they go cut off lucy's head? Thanks in advance!
