Fred Gwynne wrote 10 books but he was best known as an actor -- and for his most famous role, that of Herman Munster.  He also starred in other TV shows such as Car 54, Where Are You? and films such as My Cousin Vinny.  He also worked on the stage in plays such as Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.  In addition, Gwynne painted, sang professionally, and lent his distinctive baritone voice to commercials and radio shows such as CBS Radio Mystery Theater.

It’s not quite as good as The King Who Rained, the illustrations are still very nice and it’s a helpful visual guide to help clear the confusion of homonyms. There is a scull/skull and the skull is a bit ominous so if you or your child are uncomfortable with that, skip this one.

I loved these punny books when I was a kid (both A Chocolate Moose for Dinner and The King Who Rained) but I haven't seen them in decades. It would be fun to find a copy to revisit them now, as an adult.

Acting: 4.0; Theme: 4.5; Content: 5.0; Language: 5.0; Overall: 4.5

This classic television show from the 1960s ran for three seasons. The Munsters are unique. Herman (Fred Gwynne) is a devoted family man and husband He is gigantic and scary, but harmless and kind. His elegant and unique wife, Lily (Yvonne DeCarlo), keeps the family together. Marilyn (Pat Priest) is the "black sheep" daughter of the family, because she is the only "normal" one in the family. Eddie (Butch Patrick) is their fun-loving son and who sleeps in a coffin. Grandpa (Al Lewis) sleeps like a bat and rounds out this interesting family of oddities. Highly recommend.
