Wait! Toady? Where was that toad now?
Judy rushed over to Petunia. “Open
wide and say ‘Ahh’!” Judy said in her
best doctor voice. She looked down
Petunia’s throat.
Judy did not see a bug. She did not
see a spider, ant, or earwig. She saw a
puddle. A small puddle of liquid. Amy
saw it, too.
Was it . . . could it be . . . toad pee?
“ROAR!” said Judy. “The vampire
plant ate Toady!”

Just then, Stink came running into
Judy’s room. “Who ate
Toady?” he asked.
“Nobody.”
“Where is he,
then?”
“Um . . .” said
Judy.
Just then,
Toady hopped
from the
bedpost to the
desk to the
doorknob.

“Right there,” said Amy, pointing.
Stink scooped him up. “Phew. Don’t
scare me like that.”
Judy pushed Stink and Toady
toward the door. “Stink! Get him out
of here! My room is now officially a
FROG-FREE zone.”

“A toad is not a frog,” said Stink.
“Tell that to the Toadivoria
vampira!” said Judy.
“The toadi-huh?”
Judy pointed to the pitcher plant.
“Stink, I hate to tell you this. But
Jaws’s new BFF is a freaky, frog-eating
vampire. No lie. Say hello to Count
Petunia.”
