Sizing Up the Ancient Beasts

The autumn chill was creeping up outside, so I slipped back through the porch door and marched straight onto the living room carpet! Right under the warm floor lamp lay an enormous open book, glowing with pictures of prehistoric giants! I stomped right onto the center spread to scout the rival troops. A heavy beast with an armored back and a giant club tail was glaring out of the glossy paper. I puffed out my belly, planted my claws by his snout, and rattled my spiked shell. Ha! Tough armor, buddy, but you don't have my fiery hair or my fierce bib! (Hehe, though a club tail would be pretty awesome.) I'm making this ancient jungle my nighttime study zone!
