TW: G slur and racist stereotypes of Romani peoples, unsafe animal care in feeding a dog (looots) of chocolate

Great to revisit a childhood classic. Funny much more than scary, but especially good if you love animals getting into accidental mischief and misunderstandings!

Favorite books from when I was a kid that still hold up. So glad I stumbled upon them in my library's digital collection.

Sweet, sweet nostalgia. This was such a joy to listen to. The first one was just as great as I remembered it being. I didn't love the second one but it was alright and the last one was super cute. I'm really happy I revisited this.

"Wonderfully imaginative and funny... "

These stories are, and will forever be, a favorite of my childhood. I read these books around the age of 9 or 10 with my parents. We laughed so hard and the memory of that is the last happy memory I have of that time in my life.

Bunnicula was, in fact, my introduction to audio books. I had it on cassette and listened to it every night when I was going to sleep as a teenager. Which, looking back, is a bit telling I think. The point is, associations aside, I enjoyed these books so much that I have continued to read them again and again well into my adulthood.

The humor and the imagination that surround the Monroes and their amazing pets is a great family story. The language lends itself particularly well to being read aloud, especially by an enthusiastic reader. If you want to introduce your child, not only to a fun spoof on the horror genre, but to a barrel of belly laughs... I suggest these books most highly. Let these furry friends and their antics be a happy part of your family memories.

My 10 yr son loves this series. We listened to it about two years ago, and then he asked to listen to it again after we read Bunnicula Meets Edgar Allen Crow. The narrator has entertaining voices for the animals. My son loves how Chester the cat is such a snob. A great audiobook to pass the time on the road.

So I got this book in a book exchange between me and my friend when we were trying to show each other our favorite books from when we were kids. This was really cute. My only issue with it is that they never really go deeper into the “horror” theme like the book cover presents. The bunny barely has anything to do with the story half the time. Overall it’s a cute read. I’d definitely recommend it to a kid!
