Swamp Monster

(3) 4-6 Scary Tales series. Illustrated by Iacopo Bruno. In this sixth genuinely scary installment, twin brothers Chance and Lance don't have much at home in their Texas shack, but they like exploring the nearby swamp. When they find an unusual egg and bring it home, bad things ensue for the twins and their neighbor as a swamp mother searches for her baby. Gray paper and inky-black illustrations add to the spookiness.
