      About This Book

      LEVEL 3 READY-TO-READ

      It''s Christmas Eve, and Howie the dachshund puppy is scared. Who is this big guy in the red suit who''s going to come down the Monroes'' chimney with a huge sack over his shoulder? Chester isn''t scared of Santa; it''s the Christmas ghosts he''s worried about (and, of course, Bunnicula). So when there''s a loud CRASH from the basement, he and Harold have to investigate -- to make sure the Monroes have a merry Christmas, not a scary Christmas.
