BEASTS IN PROFILE
Read the descriptions on the following page and draw each of the monsters in the boxes
next to them, or in your notebook:
Beast #1 The beast was as tall as an elephant. It was covered in thick, red fur. I was amazed that its fur was red, such a bright red. Mesmerised, I caught sight of a tail as sharp as a blade. I gasped when I saw its long, sharp fangs. They were like samurai swords. I took a deep breath to calm down, but the beast smelled horrible - the odour could fill up two classrooms! When it moved it was as fast as a cheetah that had just drank coffee. |

Beast #2 With each step it took the ground shook. The beast had two heads of different colours, one white and the other black. I shivered when I saw its differently coloured eyes. One head had eyes as red as blood, while those on the other were a menacing, icy blue. It had black wings with white claws that were as sharp as knives. The creature’s wings were silky and soft. Its flowing tail was a flaming ball of red and blue fire. The wild thing’s red legs were covered in scales. |
Beast #3 I looked closely at the three red beady eyes, and the mouth dripping with lava. I could not believe how big it was! It was the size of a rocket, with six arms sprouting from its body! I couldn’t help but stare at the murderous look in its red eyes. The monster had razor sharp black teeth and its fur was striped black and orange. The claws were as green as lettuce. Its fingernails, yellow as the sun. I caught glimpses of its fangs. They could slice your hand off in one bite! The smell of the beast’s breath almost killed my dog. It smelled like garbage mixed with rotten eggs. The monster’s tail had sharp spikes pointing straight up at the ceiling. |

Beast #4 I couldn't believe the strange creature standing before me. It was at least as big as a city bus. A faint, delicate smell of roses came from the beast. I heard a sound rise from its throat, a cross between a squeak and growl. The eyes were a burning red. A forked tongue shot out from between small, white, razor sharp fangs. The beast darted around as fast as lightning, its pointed claws tearing through the ground. Its upper body was the colour of sweet honey, including its head which resembled that of a horse, although it moved, and slashed like a panther. Finally, I saw its tail! A silver, glowing snake. |
