The Arc Dream Publishing roleplaying game Monsters and Other Childish Things is about kids whose best friends are scary monsters from beyond time and space. Well, at Oak Mountain Intermediate School in Birmingham, Ala., we found a whole class of fifth-graders who had monster friends!
The kids drew and wrote about their monster buddies, and then — with the kind permission of their parents and the school (hi, Mrs. Schultz!) — we turned them over to fans of our game to come up with monster stats according to Monsters and Other Childish Things.
