So we’re having supper outside tonight and a really big ant starts crawling on the picnic table. Hazel immediately guesses it must be the queen ant. So that leads to the discussion that while this was a very big ant, it wasn’t a queen ant because they don’t go exploring and foraging around. They stay at home and their job is to make baby ants.
Hazel: I want to be a queen ant and have lots of babies!
Oh boy.
Making monsters is Dr. Nutt’s specialty. Her best creations are the Yummy Mummy, the Boogie-Woogie Man, and her masterpiece, Dracula-la-la! who loves to sing Opera music. It’s music to Dr. Nutt’s ears, but the villagers don’t like the idea of singing vampires roaming around their town. When they storm her laboratory they are in for a pleasant surprise.
