Who's the author(s)?

Also, were you not read Dr. Suess as a child? I would presume that that is all very much fiction. Oh how I loved Dr. Suess. That might help explain things.

Well, I did pick this up from the library, here on campus. I was surprised they had it. Guess I'm stereotyping small libraries. Oh well. I'll most likely read this tonight or tomorrow. Thanks EUOL.

If y'all like Bunnicula you should read the other books in the series.  My personal favorite was Howliday Inn.  It's got some great one liners.  

I used to have all of them...but I think my mom stole them to put in her classroom.

If you like Bunnicula you should also try the series "The Plant that Ate Dirty Socks"

EOUL's recent blog on bs.com has some grammar issues...

"Sure, you can tomatoes, meat, sour cream, avocados, and beans." needs a verb, like "have." And "lay down" should be "lie down."

What does the word "grades" in "I later found a few grades of it on one or two chips at the bottom" mean? Perhaps "gratings" if referring to grated cheese?

I fix the grammar and spelling on Brandon's site--I haven't looked at it in a few days, so I didn't see that the latest post needed some errors fixed. I'll be fixing them later today.

Heh.  I blogged that one off of my phone.  No spell check, limited editing ability.  

Brenna, I appreciate your help.
