I love the book Bunnicula! I was exstatic a few weeks ago when the little girl I babysit suggested that we read it before bed. For those of you that don't know Bunnicula is written from the point of view of the family dog. The dog writes about the excitement that follows the finding of a bunny in the movie theater while seeing Dracula. The irony of irony is that the bunny (who they so cleverly name Bunnicula) is a vampire! But that is not the best part; the bunny sucks the color out of vegtables!
I have some different ideas that I want to use this book for, unfortunatly they don't really fit together. I think that Bunnicula could be a great seqway into learning about different animals and whether they are carnivors, herbavors, omnivors and what that means for their diets. I also think it would be neat to use Bunnicula along with other books to look at different examples of fiction.
If I were going to use the book to look at the different animals "eating preferences" I would do a thematic unit. If I were going to use it along with other fiction books I would do a literature focus unit.
I am sorry this is so brief-- I am very worn out from three days straight of wedding "fun".
