I've just started the book. 3 chapters in and it's cute.
Gosh, I read this when in elementary school. :) I loved it then and I still recommend it to children now.
Have it on hold They had it so it should be there for me by tomorrow
I'd never heard of it or the series. I found the book when I was looking to complete the Rabbit Quest.
Reva, In future please ask one of the mods to start BR thread for you. It would be a mess if everyone starts to set up threads for their reading. :)
I pushed the start date to April 12, 2015. Too much going on. I hope that's ok.

Sorry, I wasn't aware that permission was required.
This book is adult funny. I'm finding the vocabulary too sophisticated for kids. Also there's lots of sarcasm. It reminds me of The Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoons we had on TV growing up. -- definitely written for adults. What do others think?
Just finished it. Liked the cat.
So folks, what did everyone think of the book?
I thought it was really cute! I loved the misinterpretation about the stake (steak):D I see it's got a sequel too.
I thought it was cute as well. I wonder how scared the veggies were. Do you really think the bunny was a vampire? LOL
Not that I pay attention to the newer TV cartoons, but this series strikes me as the perfect story line.
ahhh I need to read this again. I remember it being so good when I was a kid, and I have it on audiobook at home.

I saw this thread in my news feed and had to comment. This was one of my kids all time favorite books! They loved the snarky humor of it.
This is an informal Buddy Read. -- Anyone can join, pose questions.
BEWARE THE HARE!
Is he or isn't he a vampire?
Before it's too late, Harold the dog and Chester the cat must find out the truth about the newest pet in the Monroe household -- a suspicious-looking bunny with unusual habits...and fangs!
Bunnicula is a children's book series written by James Howe (and his late wife Deborah in the case of the first book, "Bunnicula") about a vampire bunny that sucks the juice out of vegetables.
The story is centered on the Monroe family and their pets and is told from the perspective of their dog Harold. The Monroes find a bunny at the theater where they were watching a Dracula film. Because of this, they name him Bunnicula. Their cat Chester, however, is convinced Bunnicula is a vampire and attempts to get Harold to help save the Monroes from the perceived menace.
Following the end of the Bunnicula series, James Howe began a spin-off series called Tales from the House of Bunnicula, which are 'written' by Howie, the dachshund puppy introduced into the series in Howliday Inn. There is also a series called Bunnicula and Friends. They are a series of picture books about adventures of the characters from the stories. They are aimed for beginning readers. There's also another series, Harold & Chester, that are similar to the picture books, but are slightly longer. (less)
