alphabeast



There is so much to talk about when you find a salamander in your basement!

Such as:
What's an amphibian?
How is it like a snake? 
How is it like a frog?
What do living things need to survive and thrive?

Violet observed that each time the salamander moved, it made a new letter. 

After we dubbed him? her? an alphamander, we released him? her? back into his? her? dank, damp basementy home. I suppose the next question to pursue naturally, is how does one tell if a salamander is a girlamander or a salaboy?

  1. I don't know how to tell the difference if it's a boy or a girl, but it sure is cute.
