THE HOLLOW CHOCOLATE BUNNIES OF THE APOCALYPSE
This story is absolutely NOT for young children, as the nursery characters that are popular in it tend to meet with some rather graphic and violent deaths. There's also a lot of other adult content such as sex, drinking, etc.

I didn't feel it was an overly remarkable story, but it's still pretty good with wit and humor. If you've ever read the Nursery Crime novels by Jasper Fforde you may like this one. It's quite possible it inspired Fforde's work, since it was published earlier.

I'd recommend this one simply for it's uniqueness.

THE TOYMINATOR
This is the sequel to "The Hollow Chocolate Bunnies of the Apocalypse". It's a unique, and VERY adult, spin on characters from nursery rhymes and children's toys. It can get very raunchy at times, but it is also entertaining. Especially, when during their investigation, Jack and Eddie end up in Hollywood.

I highly recommend this series to anyone (who's an adult or mature reader) looking for a different type of nursery rhyme story. I don't feel it's suitable for children, as there's a lot of sex, violence, and swearing in it.
