Here is a brief summary of the plot up until this point: Cara’s grandmother gave her a special necklace while they were running from an evil hunter. She told her to whisper the words “Luster bring me home,” so that she could escape the evil man. Cara had to jump from a high clock tower and whisper these words while holding the special necklace. When Cara woke up she was in a different world where strange things started happening to her. The part I’m going to read starts just after Cara has escaped a delver, which is an evil creature that keeps trying to steal Cara’s necklace.
Have students think of various kinds of magical creatures and generate a list on the board. Have students think about the types of powers their creature might have and where it might live.

Reviews for "Unlocking the Secrets of Magic Grow Capsules: What Makes Dinosaurs Hatch and Grow?"
1. Tiffany - 1/5 - I purchased the Magic Grow Capsules Dinosaur for my son's birthday, and it was a total disappointment. The capsules did not expand properly, and the dinosaurs ended up looking deformed and unrecognizable. It was such a letdown for my son, who was really excited about watching the dinosaurs grow. I do not recommend this product at all.
2. Mark - 2/5 - The Magic Grow Capsules Dinosaur claim to be a fascinating toy that grows into life-like dinosaurs, but my experience with them was underwhelming. The capsules took forever to expand, and even then, the dinosaurs didn't look anything like the pictures on the packaging. The colors were dull, and the overall quality was poor. It seemed like a cheap knockoff trying to imitate other successful similar products. I wouldn't waste my money on this again.
3. Sarah - 1/5 - I bought the Magic Grow Capsules Dinosaur as a gift for my nephew, but it turned out to be a complete waste of money. The capsules didn't grow as promised, and the dinosaurs' shapes were distorted. It was frustrating for both me and my nephew, who was disappointed that he couldn't play with the dinosaurs as advertised. I definitely regret purchasing this product and would advise others to stay away from it.
