The Drawing Contest is happening on Fairday's Blog! This contest will run until Sunday, February 3rd, so enter for your chance to win a fabulous book prize pack! Saturday, we look forward to hearing from you on The DMS Wants to Know!

 Today, we wanted to tell you about two of our favorite magical creatures!

 This week's top of the heap: Best magical creatures : )
Fairday: Quick and easy for me, I love Toothless. I have always leaned towards horses- pegasus or unicorn, but when I watched How to Train Your Dragon, all of that changed. Toothless is absolutely my favorite, having all of the perfect magical attributes. Not to mention, he's adorable and looks just like my cat : ) ~ F




Lizzy: I think I would have to go with Hedwig, Harry Potter's owl. How cool is it that she brings the mail! Plus she's smart and loyal, and makes a great pet. Hedwig pretty much does her own thing, but always keeps a watchful eye on Harry, making sure that he gets his messages- perfect for me! ~ L

    I've always been partial to Pegasus, but then my dad had a Mobile gas station and we had images of flying red horses... that might have SOMEthing to do with it! :)

    Dragons have always fascinated me--the Chinese ones, especially.

    I think all animals have a little magic in them so picking a favorite is difficult. I have always loved Jiminy Cricket.

    Awesome choices. Being partial to owls, I like Hedwig, but dragons are cool, too. I think my alltime favorite, though is Tumnus the fawn from The Chronicles of Narnia. He was just so nice and sweet, and basically decent.
