 I really loved this! It was so wholesome and I wish I could have discovered it when I was younger.
I found myself laughing all the time during this story at Harold and Chester's crazy antics.

I have such wonderful memories of reading this series when I was in 3rd and 4th grade. I loved how the book, while written for kids, really did have an adult humor to it.

I didn't enjoy listening to these books as much as I did reading them, but it was definitely worth the trip down memory lane.

I guess my only criticism of the audio presentation is that while Victor Gabrer is a great narrator, his voice is not the one I imagined in my head when I think of Harold and Chester. I also thought his portrayal of Howie was a little too oafish and not enough puppy. However, it was still entertaining and enjoyable to listen along.

Finally finished the third book. Not my favorite. The narrator was really good, though.

Includes Bunnicula: A Rabbit-Tale of Mystery, Howliday Inn, and The Celery Stalks at Midnight. I think the second is my favourite. All feature the fairly unobjectionable (considering  the 1979 1st edition) and sometimes unintentional comic duo of Harold the dog and Chester the cat, along with a menagerie of others. Bunnicula's role is small, but I did get many chuckles out of this 6 hours. Still, why make even a fictional dog love chocolate?!
