Attack of the Fluffy Bunnies


Attack of the Fluffy Bunnies by Andrea Beaty J BEA—This book is hysterically funny.  It tells the tale of three fluffy bunny aliens who come to take over and eat everyone on Earth.  Kevin and Joules are twins whose parents drop them at camp while they go to a SPAM cooking competition.  Yep, SPAM.  Camp is not what they expect, especially when the adults all get eaten by 7 foot tall bunnies who force the kids to eat sugar.  The twins and their friend Nelson must save the day.  Much hilarity ensues and then the world is safe once more.  A great book that is perfect for reluctant readers.
