I had completely forgotten about reading this book as a child until a conversation with my best friend likening someone to a bunny with red eyes and fangs. Whereupon she said, wait, I'm pretty sure that's actually a book isn't it? She looked it up and yes, yes it was.

BUNNICULA is one of those children's books that I love! Literary references and large vocabulary words interwoven into an adorable little story. Although I had forgotten about this book, not hard to do when you book carnivore like I do, I now remember really enjoying it as a child.

It's written from Howard the dog's point of view which I always think is just so much fun. Full of lovely little references to Edgar Allan Poe and Robert Louis Stevenson, amongst others. Bunnicula is a bunny vampire who drains vegetables of their juices, could there be a better kids will be kids novel. Imagination is so important with children and this book just embodies that to me. It's not a life lessons book by any means, it's just for fun which I think is really great.
