Plus, I just supervised Z's read and scanned each monster before reading it to him.

We got a book from the library -- A Medieval Beastiery -- and it scared my boy! Gave him nightmares. I felt really really bad.

When they can't reach any more food (they are attached to the plants), they die.Jennershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08044537551139633301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-754919688510890076.post-57077106103738555762009-10-15T12:44:54.717-07:002009-10-15T12:44:54.717-07:00I love that bit of Vampire poetry.
