Summary: Still one of my favorites!
Review: My old copy of "Bunnicula" is old and brittle from being read so many times as a kid, and is still a nostalgic favorite. This book is the first of many about the Monroes, an average family with not-so-average pets. First off there is Harold, the "author" of the book, who is an older mutt and is very gentle and somewhat dimwitted. Next there is Chester, a cat who is partial to reading at night (especially Edgar Allan Poe) and therefore has developed an overactive imagination. At first its just the two of them until the Monroes come home from seeing "Dracula" at the movie theater- who have brought home an abandoned bunny rabbit with them! This bunny is very unusual, with black "cape" markings in its fur, sleeps during the day, and drains all the vegetables in the house of their juice and color! Only Chester suspects Bunnicula is a vampire and sets out in a quest to expose the bunny. This is a great book for little kids as well as older ones, and also good for reading out loud to a kid because its not too long either. The sequels which are essential to this book are "Howliday Inn," "The Celery Stalks at Midnight," and "Nighty Nightmare." Those were some of the first to follow up on "Bunnicula" and therefore the best. This should be given to every child who loves a laugh as well as a thrill at the same time. Enjoy!

Summary: bunnicula
Review: I read the book Bunnicula. It's about a dog named Harold
and a cat named Chester. And of course a rabbit named
Bunnicula.(not your ordinary cuddley rabbit.)
It all started when harold and chester's owners came
home from a dracula movie.And the owners didn't come
home by themselves. They came with a box with a rabbit
in it.They put the rabbit in a cage. They had some
trouble nameing the rabbit. But they finally found
the name of bunnicula. Probably because of the fact
that they found bunnicula at a dracula movie.
And they sure picked the right name for him. Chester
began to notice that the black spot on Bunnicula looked
like a cape. Chester stayed awake to see what bunnicula
did at night.(I would of though a rabbit would sleep
at night.) Chester noticed that the sly rabbit wasn't
in his cage. He heard a noise in the kitchen. The door
of the kitchen opened. And guess who was hopping happily
out of the kitchen.(That was a sentance from the book.)
The next morning all of the veggitables were white.
On the third time Bunnicula went out for his midnight snack
Chester was prepared. He was trying to starve Bunnicula.
Harold yelled at Chester. Bunnicula looked sick.A few
days later Harold took Bunnicula out of his cage and
lead him to the kitchen. I can't tell the ending because
this is an online review. I recommend this book if you
like bunny vampires.

Summary: I loved this series!
Review: When I was a kid, I loved this series. These books have everything - humor, talking animals, mystery, a vampire rabbit... what more could you want? I just found out there are two books in the series I never read. Even though I am in my mid 20's, I still want to get those and read them. Bunnicula is great for kids of all ages.

Summary: Veggie-Sucking Creature of the Night
Review: Bunnicula is the new bunny adopted by the Monroe family. He got the name "Bunnicula" because he's obviously a bunny and they found him at a Dracula movie. Everybody loves him except Chester the cat, whose jealousy grows to suspicion when he notices the cute little baby rabbit has fangs instead of normal incisors.Harold the dog doesn't believe his friend's theory about Bunnicula being a vampire bunny. However, when Chester claims to have seen Bunnicula sneaking out of the kitchen late one night and then a drained white tomato is found in the kitchen the following morning, Harold can't help but believe Chester is right. Following the incident, several more white vegetables are found, and because the Monroes don't suspect their newest pet is responsible for sucking the life out of their food, Chester takes it on himself to rid the house of Bunnicula. He tries several times by decorating the house with garlic and driving a "steak" through the sleeping bunny's heart, but in the end, the Monroes think Chester is just jealous of the new bunny. Consequently, he's sent to a cat psychiatrist to resolve his sibling rivalry, leaving the mystery of Bunnicula open and unanswered. "Bunnicula" is a great book for kids 8 - 12, especially for those who love cats, dogs, or rabbits. If you liked this book, I would also recommend the other books involving Harold, Chester, and Bunnicula: The Celery Stalks at Midnight, Howliday Inn, Return to Howliday Inn, Nighty-Nightmare, Bunnicula Escapes! and Bunnicula Strikes Again! For fans of animal-oriented children's books, try "Charlotte's Web" by E. B. White, "The Secret of NIMH" by Robert C. O'Brien, "Racso and the Rats of NIMH" by Jane Leslie Conly, as well as "The Mouse and the Motorcycle", "Ralph S. Mouse", and "Runaway Ralph" by Beverly Cleary.

Summary: Bunnicula is a very cute, and interesting book.
Review: Bunnicula is about a cat and a dog living with their family. Their life is normal, peaceful and happy. Until one night, their masters bring home a bundle with something inside of it. Harold, who was the family dog, tries to get a look at what the Monroes were holding in their hand. Inside the bundle was a tiny rabbit with a piece of paper attached to it's neck which was in a totally different language. Harold, who had Russian wolfhound blood noticed the language as a dialect of the Carpathian Mountain region. The paper read, "Take good care of my baby." The Monroe's named the rabbit Bunnicula since they found him in a theater while watching a Dracula movie. The Monroe's made Bunnicula a cage out of a crate and placed it by the window. Chester, the family cat, noticed that the rabbit started to move in his cage for the first time and he put his nose out and inhaled deeply, as if he were getting sustenance from the moonlight. Chester noticed the weird marking on the rabbit's forehead that was usually a black spot, but it took a strange v-shape, which connected with the big black patch that covered his back and each side of his neck. It looked like he was wearing a coat or a cape. He could hear the soft sound of a gypsy violin which was really the next door neighbor practicing his violin. As Chester sighed with relief he watched the rabbit. Bunnicula's lips gave a hideous smile, where Chester saw two pointed little fangs. Was Bunnicula really a vampire or not? Read the book to find out more. I really enjoyed the book because the characters are cute and human-like. The book made perfect sense and did have a little bit of imagination because Chester and Harold talk as if they were really human.

Summary: I would give this book three or four stars
Review: I thought the way that this book ended was very sensible. My favorite part of the book was when Harold started to like Bunnicula. I liked it because Harold disagreed with what Chester said. My least favorite part of the book was when Chester was trying to kill Bunnicula. My favorite character is Bunnicula. I will recommend this book to a friend because I think they will like it.

Summary: Hilarious!!
Review: This is the very first Bunnicula book, and, like all the books in the series, it provides many laughs, much fun, and all-around entertainment. Chester's kinda mean in this one, tho. I mean, more mean than usual. LOL. I prefer Howliday Inn, but still, you've gotta love the original! What does it mean when the vegetables turn white? That Bunnicula has been on the prowl, sucking the life (juice) out of all those poor vegetables! ^__~ Today vegetables, tomorrow the world!! MUWAHAHAHA!! Definitely a fun read ^^

Summary: Mysterious Book
Review: I really like Bunnicula because of the cute litte bunny and it's funny. I really think you should read it because if you like mysterious books then you will give it five stars, too. It is a good book because Chester, the cat, thinks Bunnicula, the bunny, is a vampire because he has red eyes and vampire teeth.
