About the Authors
Deborah Howe (1946–1978) coauthored Bunnicula and Teddy Bear’s Scrapbook with her husband, James, before succumbing to cancer at the age of thirty-one. Her work won numerous awards.
James Howe is the author of more than ninety books for young readers, including the modern classic Bunnicula and its highly popular sequels. In 2001, he published The Misfits, the story of four outcast seventh-graders who try to end name-calling in their school. The Misfits is now widely read and studied in middle schools throughout the country and was the inspiration for the national movement known as No Name-Calling Week, an event observed by thousands of middle and elementary schools annually.
