Add a CommentThis book is hilarious. My daughter and I read it together in one sitting. You may ask, what exactly is a vampire rabbit? A vampire rabbit sucks the juices and color out of vegetables. Of course that will absolutely not do. So Chester tries to drive a steak in Bunnicula's heart. Yes, you read that correctly- steak. Or to be more precise, a sirloin steak. Wait until you see the pictures. I think the best picture is Chester, wearing a cape, and trying to pantomime a vampire in an attempt to warn the Monroes. ---------- The book is intelligent. I hate when children's books dumb down the vocabulary, but Bunnicula is not guilty of this. In fact, there were times when I stopped and made sure my daughter understood certain things like blight, class lectures and the Carpathian Mountain region. ---------- We thoroughly enjoyed this book and laughed through most of it. It is a great story and a lot of fun to read aloud together. We will definitely be reading the next books in the series.
Funny, mysterious, ridiculous, and silly. A great combo for a story. Kudos to Deborah and James Howe!
Good! I love, love, love the characters! And I like the weird ending! Great book! Recommended to any one who wants a short, calmly-told tale :) (or tail)
This is where my love of vampires began. My mom read this story to me when I was young and now I am reading it to my kids. It is suspenseful but not scary. My boys weren't scared just on the edge of their set waiting to find out if Bunnicula was a vampire bunny and how those vegetables turn white. The beginning of a great series.
