Vermont: Champy

December 14, 2011 Ticia 6 Comments

I have to admit I love anything and everything Stephen Kellog, he just write and illustrates some of the cutest books.  I’m lucky and went to a conference he was at and he signed a book for me.

A couple of years ago when Superheroes and Princesses wrote about Vermont she mentioned Lake Champlain has an inhabitant rather like the Loch Ness Monster, she actually found a book about him, but my library didn’t have that.  However I own the next best thing a book not specifically about the Loch Ness Monster.

 

 

Well, after reading it and talking about Champy, we took some time to make our own versions of him.

Isn’t if funny how they each have their own very distinct Champy?

And here’s the printable, if you want it: Vermont: Champy

    I love the different versions. My kids love the idea of sea monsters — I think it's all of the Scooby Doo they watch!

    There's just something about a lake monster that inspires the imagination!
