Bunnicula
By Deborah and James Howe

Do you like bunnies? Blood-sucking things? Fangs? Vampires? Then we think you’ll really enjoy this book. In the beginning of the book the Monroe family went to see a Dracula movie and ended up bringing home a cute, little bunny that they named Bunnicula. Chester the cat tries to prove to Harold the dog and the Monroe family that Bunnicula is really a vampire. We guarantee you’ll love this book.

The Zack Files: Great-Grandpa’s in the Litter Box
By Dan Greenburg

Do you believe in reincarnation? Zack thinks his great-grandpa Julius was reincarnated as a cat—a talking cat! If you like feline, mysteries, and craziness, then check out this silly book. We give it 5 thumbs up!!

Anastasia on Her Own

I'd like to tell you about Anastasia on Her Own by Lois Lowry. It's about a girl named Anastasia who is very organized and so is her family but her mom. Her mom isn't very organized because she is an illustrator, a wife, a mom, and a house worker but when she leaves to L.A. and asks Anastasia to look after the house can she do it?

A Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket

A Series of Unfotunate Events are good books. My favorite so far is The Reptile Room. My favorite character is Violet. It was a big shock at the end. There are four main characters: Klaus, Sunny, Count Olaf, and Violet. In the second one, they go to live with a new member of their family. He has a lot of reptiles. This is a great book!

Fantastic Mr. Fox

This book is about 3 farmers and five foxes. The foxes want to eat their chicken but the farmers check them. The farmer shot his tail off and the foxes jump into the hole. They starve and they see other animals. They have a feast. My favorite character is Mr. Fox. I think this book is a great book and I think you will too.

Brian's Hunt by Gary Paulsen

I like Brian's Hunt because my friend Cody likes to hunt like me. Also, because we like chapter books. Cody also really enjoys hunting books.
