Bunnicula, coauthored by his late wife Deborah and published in 1979, is considered a modern classic of children's literature.

Among his other books are picture books such as Horace and Morris but Mostly Dolores and beginning reader series that include the Pinky and Rex and Houndsley and Catina books. He has also written for older readers.
