1-3Tales from the House of Bunnicula series.
Illustrated by
Brett Helquist.
Dachshund Howie's loosely plotted tales of science fiction and horror--one is a parody of the Harry Potter books--are interrupted by commentary from "Howie's Writing Journal," which describes the difficulties of creating the stories. The content is slight, but the narrative style is amusing, as are the accompanying illustrations. [Review covers these Tales from the House of Bunnicula titles: Howie Monroe and the Doghouse of Doom, Invasion of the Mind Swappers from Asteroid 6! and It Came from beneath the Bed![cv1].]
