Bunnicula by James Howe JFIC Mystery

Harold the dog and Chester the cat lead a normal life with the Monroe family until they find a bunny at the movie theatre. When the family brings it home, Chester finds that the bunny is very odd. He sleeps during the day and has fangs. Also, something strange has been happening to the vegetables in the kitchen. Chester is sure that it is the rabbit's fault. Harold and Chester aren't your ordinary pets. Chester loves to read and Harold is talked to like one of the family. The story is told from Harold's perspective, the kind loyal dog of the house. This is a great read for Halloween. If you like this story, there are many others in the series like Howliday Inn and Nighty Nightmare.

Food for Thought: Did you find any similarities between humans and the way Chester and Harold act?
