Discussion between Aline and Hazel en route to the bus stop for Hazel’s second day at school:
Hazel: Do I have school tomorrow?
Aline: No. Tomorrow is Saturday so it’s the weekend. But you’ll go back to school on Monday and keep going through the winter and spring.
Hazel: I have school in winter?
Aline: Yes.
Hazel: Will I have school in the summer?
Aline: Yes.
Hazel: Will I have school in AUGUST?
Poor kid. She had no idea what she was getting into . . .
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.
