Fantastic Animal Mystery for Middle Readers

Pete and Toby Monroe, along with their parents, Mr. and Mrs. Monroe, are going on vacation, and, thanks for Harold's tendency to get carsick, they have decide to leave both him, and Chester at Chateau Bow-Wow, a supposed four-star hotel for dogs and cats. It seems like a boring place to Harold and Chester, until the first night, when they are trying to get some sleep, and they hear a horrendous howling, causing Chester to rename Chateau Bow-Wow, Howliday Inn. Chester becomes convinced almost instantly that there are werewolves among them at the hotel, and begins investigating. But pretty soon Harold and Chester have even more to investigate, because animals begin disappearing, and there are rumors of murder spreading around. Now it's up to Chester and Harold to solve the case, before their check-out time from Howliday Inn comes sooner than expected.After reading THE MISFITS by James Howe, I thought that I'd check out another one of his novels, which led to my purchase of HOWLIDAY INN. This is one of the best books that I have ever read for children and pre-teens. The characters are intelligent and witty, and speak in such a simple way that children of all ages will be able to understand what is going on in the plot. Not only that, readers will be able to help Chester and Harold solve the mystery, while also getting a good laugh out of the quirky personalities of the other boarders at Chateau Bow-Wow. A must have book for all kids ages 6-13, as HOWLIDAY INN is something that even the most reluctant reader will be unable to put down.Erika Sorocco

A Wonderful Book Read With a Wonderful Voice

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.

The Best Short Story EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is the best short story i have ever read. Most of the short stories i read are found difficult to pay attention to. But this is a MUST READ BOOK!!!!!!!!!!!

I Loved It!

I read this book quite a few years ago. I loved it so much, I read it over and over. This is a book that I have read to the children I babysat for, and I will also read it to my own children. It's wonderful and I will never forget it.

A GREAT book for 9-12 year olds who enjoy reading!!!!

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!!!!
