Rating:  Summary: A good book about animals who stay at a strange hotel Review: Howlday Inn , a book by James Howe, is all about a dog named Harold and a cat named Chester. They could hardly believe it! The Monroes were going on vacation with out them!The familys rabbit would be staying with a nieghboor. But the family's dog and cat, wre to stay with strangers at the Chateau Bow-Wow. No sooner had Harold and Chester settled into thier bungloos, thier cages, than Louise, a French poodle involved in a messy love triangle dissapered.Chester believed the six other guest were capable of anything even murder. Ther was a pair of Dachshounds who howled at the moon and were rumored to be half werewolf,Lyle,A crazy catwho was convincedhe was a secret agent.There was also Max,Louises husband,Gorgette,a flirt and taxi max's best friend.All Herold and Chester knew was that inspite of themselves they had entered the crime detection buisness ansd neither foul play nor foul weather would stip them from finding out who did it. This book was a very thrilling book. Throught the whole book i was suspicious about all of the characters. I felt as if I was really there with all of the animals,and there problems.The story had a wonderful dialouge and irristisable characters.I recommend this book to many people of all ages.
Rating:  Summary: This book is a very exciting story. Review: Howliday Inn is a great book for kids that love mysteries and like to read. The part I like best is when Harrison fell in the mud in the chapter, ""Mystery, Mayhem and Mud."
Rating:  Summary: Howliday Innn is cool if u like mysteries you'll LOVE! this Review: Howliday Inn is an interesting book about two animals by the names of Chester, and Harold.All the other guests are all hiding something. There is even a murder!A new dog comes into the picture, his name is Howie. My favorite character is lyle, X3 the secret agent. Louise, Max, and Georgette, who are all involved in a love triangle, are only part of what this book has to offer thats interesting. This book is my favorite out of all the bunnicula books because there is so much stuff that Chester and Harold go through. Some people may agree with me but, I think it was better when it was just Harold, Chester, and Bunnicula. Personally I think Howie is annoying.
Rating:  Summary: A Wonderful Book Read With a Wonderful Voice Review: Howliday Inn is written for children but is enjoyable for any age group with its humor and clever plotline. The main characters, a dog and a cat named Harold and Chester respectively, are a lot of fun to relate to and sympathize with, and a colorful group of minor characters complements them perfectly. The mystery is suspenseful and it is fun to try to guess the outcome. Hearing Victor Garber, a very talented actor with an amazing voice, reading makes the book an even better experience. He has a voice for each character, and they are not overdone, they are subtle and exactly right. Overall it is a fun and relaxing way to spend time. I highly recommend it.

Rating:  Summary: The Greatest Mystery! Review: I am 9 years old and just finished this book. When Lucy, the dog, vanishes, everyone panics. The part I liked best was when Chester reviewed what happened when he disappeared. I'd recommend this book to mystery-lovers.
Rating:  Summary: A GREAT book for 9-12 year olds who enjoy reading!!!! Review: I am now currently 15 years of age. The first (full) book that i actually completed (and didn't stop half way through) was Howliday Inn. It was an inventive story which i remember vividly as enjoyable and influential towards later reading. If you are a parent trying to get your child (or children) into the GREAT habit of reading, then this is DEFINATELY a must for them. It dips into all kinds of later reading genres. From suspense to love, to comedy (most evident as i recall), to "horror" (and i put that in quotes because it is rather silly to be saying at the age of 15). All in All, this is a great reading experience for those who are just, well, experimenting with books for their first time. This will beautifully keep them in the ever-lasting habit of reading!!!!
Rating:  Summary: Equally enjoyable the 23rd time as the 1st Review: I first read Howliday Inn in 2nd grade. I just graduated from high school. I've read this delightful story countless times. The book looks like it's been in a blender. Pages are falling out, favorite lines are underlined,the cover is torn and held together by tape and I treasure it! The story is hilarious with witty charactes and clever dialogue. It doesn't have as much suspense as it did the first time but that's understandable especially since I can recite parts of it. Whenever I need a smile I turn to this splendid novel-- I get to relive a small piece of my childhood. Thank you James Howe. :)
Rating:  Summary: Not as good as _Bunnicula_ Review: I have been trying to track down the James Howe "Chester and Harold" series ever since I discovered _Bunnicula_. This is the second in the series, but does not feature the vampire bunny beyond a short mention in the first chapter. Chester and Harold go to stay at a pet hotel while their owners are on vacation. They are very uncomfortable, both with the people running the hotel and the other animals (six dogs and one other cat) boarded there... with good cause. This is an enjoyable little mystery, but it does not have the polish of the first book, which James Howe co-wrote with his wife, Deborah (Deborah died shortly after _Bunnicula_ was published). Harold seems just a little too bumbling -- I felt that the first book better captured the behaviors of cats and dogs (or at least the way they might behave when we aren't looking) -- and the wordplay seems a little forced. However, I will continue to read the rest of the Chester/Harold series.
