Bunnicula: A Rabbit-Tale of Mystery by Deborah Howe, James Howe, Alan Daniel

Paperback (by Deborah Howe, James Howe, Alan Daniel (Illustrator) July 12, 2009)
Bunnicula, by Deborah and James Howe, is a cute, clever, and humorous tale told from the family dog's point of view. It all begins when the Monroe family finds a peculiar little bunny at the Dracula movie. They bring him home, name him Bunnicula, and introduce him to the family cat and dog. Then strange things begin happening around the house. White vegetables keep turning up in the refrigerator, and Bunnicula can somehow escape from his cage. Chester the cat, who has a crazy imagination, comes to the conclusion that their sweet, little bunny is really a dangerous vampire who sucks the juice out of poor, defenseless vegetables. With the reluctant help of Harold the dog, Chester sets out to destroy Bunnicula by wearing garlic and preventing the bunny from entering the kitchen. Finally, Harold notices that Bunnicula is not looking well. He decides to help Bunnicula, and saves the day! In the end, they all find a way to live peacefully together, with Chester's ego just a little bit hurt.
