Bunting went to school in Ireland and grew up with storytelling. In Ireland, “There used to be Shanachies… the shanachie was a storyteller who went from house to house telling his tales of ghosts and fairies, of old Irish heroes and battles still to be won. Maybe I’m a bit of a Shanchie myself, telling stories to anyone who will listen.” This storytelling began as an inspiration for Bunting and continues with her work. Gargoyles have six powers and abilities: immortality (invulnerable to the passing of time and to diseases), human form (shapeshift to human-like beings), flight posses wings), camouflage (blend with the inanimate grotesques to surprise intruders), endurance (cannot be wounded at night), and petrification (turns other beings into stone by touch). https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/subjects/z826n39 - free resource with clips and games for the KS2 curriculum OTHER CURRICULUM – IPC/Science

With just the sign of the cross, the beast followed Romanus into the town where it was burned at the stake. Everything turned into ash except for the dragon’s head, so the townspeople mounted it to their church, serving as a watcher of evil and a protector against other dragons. urn:lcp:nightofgargoyles00eveb:epub:5ac17a93-b77b-4387-ae97-d1194c5c1161 Extramarc University of Alberta Libraries Foldoutcount 0 Identifier nightofgargoyles00eveb Identifier-ark ark:/13960/t4gn1dz53 Invoice 11 Isbn 0395665531 Following the success of last weeks virtual classes, we have scheduled a class for every day at 3:05pm!

Gargoyles became more fancy during the latter parts of the Romanesque architectural period – a time of Christian pilgrimage. In the 12th century, animal gargoyles, sculpted as pigs and dogs, served not only as waterspouts but also as symbolic protections for Cathedrale Saint-Lazare d’Autun. Gargoyles look like stone during the day, but by night they come alive and they play. They are a little comical and they just want to clean off the bird poop of the day and relax, have some fun and socialize. I love this book. It’s a great book to have for Halloween or just a spooky gathering of some kind.
