Cards

Snap Trap is loosely based on real life carnivorous plants like the Venus Fly Trap. I also took a lot of inspiration from the mean, green Audrey II from Little Shop of Horrors. I tried to keep the plant fun, cute, and maybe just a little creepy.

Running a tournament, where participants can play against each other and earn prize cards, can be a great way to make the program more interactive and social. Whether you choose to have scheduled a monthly chill get together or plan a party or large event for the Reading Dragons, a tournament can be a fun way to facilitate interaction.

I have compiled all of the art files for each mythical creature. I have added a new creature, the Kirin.

Erin Coppersmith of the Kohler Public library has shared some lovely new creatures with us. " Mishipeshu is an Ojibwe legend from the Great Lakes. It's also known as the "Underwater Panther". It controls the water and storms. A carbuncle is a magical creature from South America. It lives deep inside mines and the gem on its forehead turns colors, reflecting the treasure its defending. I know Axolotl's aren't magical creatures, but the kids here are obsessed with them." ~Er

Now that the iREAD Summer Reading Program for 2025 has reached its end, the cards created by Carey Pietsch can now be shared through the Reading Dragons website. Carey created 8 unique families of dragons for a total of 32 cards.
