Que the Bunny Monster was sitting reading his favorite book, the dictionary, upside down of course. The fact that he'd never learned to read didn't stop the rest of the monsters from revering his special reading time. He is considered by most of the local monster population to be the smartest monster in town.
Occasionally Que will take a pencil and make a few marks on the page next to a particularly interesting word. All of the other monsters crowd around and whisper about what it could mean.
Last week, they were all in a tizzy because half way through a normal reading session, Que slammed the dictionary closed, tossed it to the ground and went to the roof for some air. No one has touched the book since and they all cast suspicious glances in its general direction.

The monsters that live in the studio have a peculiar ecological balance to maintain. As their creator is so close by and watchful they are both more timid and more brave, ever fearful of the wrath of the their creator and yet with a special need to prove themselves. Thus the mischief and the pranks spiral ever higher until inevitably the bookshelf is knocked over or the irreplaceable knick-knacks are forever gone.
Just recently, I came in the door to find the whole place in disarray . As I stood with my mouth hanging open taking in the destruction, several of the monsters pointed at each other laying the blame on someone else. Hera the Shark Monster just said, "Yeah, but if it had worked, it would have been amazing." |
