As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, Georgia has been obsessed with the Jay Stephens-penned art instruction books I got her, Robots!, Heroes!, and Monsters!

This afternoon she was drawing a monster based on one of the images in Monsters!, and when she was done decided to name it by writing a random assortment of letters above the figure. (She can sound out words with time and effort, but when she wrote the letters had no idea what they said.) Then, in a nice bit of self-referentiality, she drew a picture of herself at the monster's side, with crayon in hand (and dressed as Bubbles from the Powerpuff Girls, of course, which is her Halloween plan).

And that's how Pamobe the moster came into the world...


The yellow border is, if it wasn't immediately obvious, a golden frame around the picture, naturally.
