Deborah Howe, James Howe

Aladdin, 2006

Vastly superior to Twilight
I read this book many times as a child. It is narrated by a dog and is about a family and their pets, which include the narrator, a cat, and a strange bunny they find in a cardboard box at a Dracula movie. The cat is convinced that the rabbit is actually a vampire! ...

Howliday Inn (Bunnicula)

James Howe

Aladdin, 2006

delightful
I don't read fiction very often, but I do pull this old book off the shelf and read it from time to time. I've owned this book ever since I was in the fourth grade, and I've read it too many times to count. It is a great little fiction book to read. Fun story, and ...

Nighty-Nightmare (Bunnicula)

James Howe

Aladdin, 2007

A word of advice, if you're headed on a camping trip, leave 'Nighty-Nightmare' at home
As much as Harold would love to put mystery, horror, and suspense behind him, and spend his days lounging about the kitchen waiting for his next chocolate treat; with Chester the neurotic, hare-brained, paranoid kitty quickly dashes those dreams, and does the ...

13: Thirteen Stories That Capture the Agony and Ecstasy of Being Thirteen

Simon Pulse, 2006

It is a collection anyone can enjoy.
Author Sandra Cisneros expressed in her story "Eleven" that when you are eleven years old, you are also ten, nine and eight, and so forth. Thirteen is no different. When you're thirteen, you're also twelve, eleven and ten, yet you're expected --- and even want --- to ...

Houndsley and Catina and the Quiet Time
James Howe

Candlewick, 2008

The creators of the E. B. White Read Aloud winner HOUNDSLEY AND CATINA offer a charming sequel about taking time out from the hustle and bustle. The first snow of winter has fallen, and Houndsley is very happy, as he loves the quiet time. Catina does not like the quiet time, however, and she does not enjoy being snowed in. What about all her ...

Return to Howliday Inn (Bunnicula)

James Howe

Aladdin, 2007

One of my favorite books as kid!
I actually read this book before the original Howliday Inn, and I still think I like it better. I must have read it at least twenty times, because it never failed to make me laugh out loud, and still does! I loved animal characters, and the ones here are so clever, and ...

Bunnicula Meets Edgar Allan Crow

James Howe

Aladdin, 2008

Courtesy of Teens Read Too
Pete, the eldest of the Monroe boys, has won an essay contest for describing why the Fleshcrawlers book series grosses him out the most, and now the author of the series, M.T. Graves, will be visiting his school. What's even more exciting is that, instead of staying at ...

The Celery Stalks at Midnight (Bunnicula)

James Howe

Aladdin, 2006

A clever romp through the mind of a zany cat and his two canine companions!
Harold thought that all of Chester's fears and concerns regarding Bunnicula and the fact that he was a vampire ended long ago, when he was placed on a liquid diet of vegetable juice. But, when Bunnicula disappears from his cage, and Chester begins locating various ...

Bunnicula Strikes Again!

James Howe

Aladdin, 2007

Good
It's a good book, what more can I say. We have almost the whole collection.

The Misfits

James Howe

Aladdin, 2003

"The Misfits"
This is an excellent book for teens, and any adult who has ever been a teen once upon a time, will enjoy it, as well. As a life-long teacher (37 years) in the middle school, I truly recognize the situations that are protrayed. This should be "must reading" for ...

I Wish I Were a Butterfly

James Howe

Voyager Books, 1994

A must have!
As a future teacher, I am always looking for books that will be both enjoyable and educational. This is a great book for social studies concepts in younger grades (K-2) and excellent for elements of literature in older grades (3+). The message is one that children ...

The Fright Before Christmas (Bunnicula and Friends Ready-to-Read)

James Howe

Aladdin, 2007

Terrific Book for 5 to 7 year olds
My children (5 and 7) both loved this book. Both could read it easily. The longer Bunnicula books are much more humorous, but these books are probably easier for a 5 or 6 year old to read and comprehend.

Totally Joe

James Howe

Aladdin, 2007

I love Joe Bunch!
Totally Joe by James Howe follows the life of the 12-going-on-13 year old narrator Joe Bunch, and the situations within his life in the form of an alphabiography assigned by his English teacher Mr. Daly. Each chapter begins with and is structured around a letter, and ...

Scared Silly (Ready-to-Read. Level 3)

James Howe

Aladdin, 2006

Scared Silly
Excellent service I thought it was a hard back and it turned out to be a paperback but the price should have told me.

The Bunnicula Collection: Books 1-3: #1: Bunnicula: A Rabbit-Tale of Mystery; #2: Howliday Inn; #3: The ...

James Howe, Deborah Howe

Listening Library (Audio), 2004

Great books for all ages
Count me among the Victor Garber fans who bought this set of CDs simply to hear Alias' Spydaddy do something others said he did well. Also count me among those who thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The books themselves are well written and seem to be just fun to ...
