Okay, I'll admit it. I bought these CDs because some of my fellow Victor Garber fans were going on about them. But hey, guess what? I've really enjoyed the stories, too! James and Deborah Howe really thought things through with the first book, and I loved the wonderful silliness of 'bloodless' white vegetables in the kitchen, Bunnicula's 'cloak', 'fangs' and daytime sleepiness, Chester trying to be Van Helsing and failing in hilarious fashion. Poor Harold.... I'd be glad to feed him chocolate cupcakes and give him MTRs anytime!

James has expanded the world of Bunnicula very well in the second and third books. After vampires, what else would you expect but werewolves at Chateau Bow Wow? The fiasco at Toby and Pete's school play had me giggling like nobody's business! He knows how to let the inherent ridiculousness of the situation build up to a great comic crescendo. I promise you I will get hold of the next three books, as I can't wait to see what happens next!

Count me among the Victor Garber fans who bought this set of CDs simply to hear Alias' Spydaddy do something others said he did well. Also count me among those who thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The books themselves are well written and seem to be just fun to read. However, Mr. Garber as the narrator just brought them to life as he created a unique voice for each character. A lot of times I didn't know which made me laugh more, the voices or the story itself.

As a 29 year old single person with no kids, I have no reason to listen to these CDs other than the pure enjoyment of them, and I think I will listen to them quite often.

I somehow missed that this is just the audio for the books. There are no books included. I received a 6 CD set. What we did get is lovely, high quality story telling. I thought that there would be books to follow along with...oops.
