Think twice before you speak, because your words and influence will plant the seed of either success or failure in the mind of another. Napoleon Hill
Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless. Mother Teresa
Your know I just love classic literature and good quotes. Some weekends I spend as much time looking for good words as I do creating.
The theme for this month's Altered Book Challenge was ‘monsters’ and other than a Cookie Monster, this was the best we could do.
Our family has always loved a good crossword puzzle, it was part of our weekend rituals to spend time with newspapers and crossword puzzles. Both my parents loved reading for the sense of adventure, to learn about new things or places and am always thankful for their nurturing the love of words. After all there are so many good ones to choose from.

Do you think there are bonus points for scrabble letters used creatively upside down? And yes, that is a dictionary page that we are peeking at underneath.

Mandy you have done it again .... Monsters is so great and yes crossword puzzles are monsters ... Linda F
Absolutely - definitely worth bonus points. :) Very cool. Love the combo of the scrabble letters & crossword puzzle.
Bonus points definitely Mandy! Love how you've done this one! My grandparents were avid cryptic crossword lovers . . . I can vividly recall them sitting there - one with pen in hand and the other with the dictionary . . . sounds like a memory I need to scrap actually!
Mandy,
