Half fairy, half vampire, Isadora Moon can do all sorts of things, but she’s never learned to ride a bike. When her human friend Zoe tells her how much fun it is, she’s determined to learn, but as most of us know, learning to cycle is harder than it looks, even if you have magic to help.
After quite a few tumbles and some hairy moments, Isadora fins her wheels, and her mum and dad take up cycling too. The charm of Harriet Muncaster’s Isadora Moon stories lies not just in the magic and make-believe but in the way that they so closely reflect the everyday lives of their readers, and this story is a particularly good example of that as Isadora tries and tries again, helped by her parents, before finally succeeding.

Isadora Moon Rides a Bike Synopsis
Half vampire, half fairy, totally unique! Isadora is special because she is different. Her mum is a fairy and her dad is a vampire and she's a bit of both.
Isadora can fly and do magic, but there's one thing she has never tried, and that's riding a bike. Luckily, her mum and dad and best friend, Zoe, are eager to help. Maybe it is possible for a vampire fairy to learn to ride a bike after all . . .?
With irresistible pink and black artwork throughout by author/illustrator Harriet Muncaster and a totally unique heroine with an out-of-this-world family, this is a beautiful, charming and funny series of first chapter books.
Perfect for fans of Claude, Dixie O'Day, and Squishy McFluff, Isadora Moon is the ideal choice for readers who want their magic and sparkle with a bit of bite.

About Harriet Muncaster
Harriet Muncaster has been drawing, writing and creating things for as long as she can remember. It was while at school that she discovered that being an illustrator and author was a real career path she could take. From that moment on Harriet knew exactly what she wanted to be! She studied illustration at Norwich University of the Arts and then went on to do an MA in Children’s Book Illustration at Cambridge School of Art. After completing the MA, Harriet’s work was spotted by a publisher at Bologna Children’s book fair and she got her first book deal.
Harriet is inspired by anything magical, fantastical and glittery. She also has a great fascination for miniature things and owns a dollshouse in the shape of a castle.
Harriet is the award-winning author of the best-selling Isadora Moon series, with over 5 million copies sold worldwide and translated into over 27 languages, and counting!
Harriet lives in a village in Bedfordshire with her husband, Henry.
