This is one of the Bunnicula Ready to Read books so it's written for the youngest reader. If you have a young reader who isn't quite ready for full-blown chapter books, but needs something a bit off-beat, this is a great series for you. You need to know that Bunnicula, the vampire bunny, is the main character of the zany, suspenseful chapter books and he lives in a house with a dog named Harold, a puppy named Howie and a cat, Chester, who suspects Bunnicula of mysterious doings.

This story is about the Howie, the puppy, and his first Christmas. It seems danger lurks and Chester, the cat, has a whole new mystery to solve.
