I...Hi Amber and Maria, Happy Halloween to you both.<br />It has been great learning about your books and the covers are cool. I really like the titles.<br /><br />I live in Texas and my fave tales have been of the Chupacabra. A blood sucking mysterious animal that wonders the night. No one has really ever saw it, captured it or photographed it. Especially this time of year, stories are every where and some tell there children to beware of the Chupacabra.Chris J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11698966001246262703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5332990871059750176.post-64399299252617976852009-10-31T19:28:54.614+01:002009-10-31T19:28:54.614+01:00about the ult up in cancda, i watched a tru story ...about the ult up in cancda, i watched a tru story movie about it <br /><br />and texas. hmmm the alamoblackroze37 AT yahoo.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18149823428113225855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5332990871059750176.post-44150049789485674742009-10-31T18:47:25.721+01:002009-10-31T18:47:25.721+01:00i think the sinking of the edmund fitzgerald had t...i think the sinking of the edmund fitzgerald had to do with canada aye?<br />dreamcleavers@yahoo.comdreamcleavershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17524959696493768552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5332990871059750176.post-49899504552442281312009-10-31T16:50:50.089+01:002009-10-31T16:50:50.089+01:00My fav tale of Texas is of Pecos Bill.
