Conflict - Lumipoo Momps at Simon's School

I've just read this storyboard by Mustafa from Bridge School.

Simon and Tigotha try to tell their classmates to run, but the classmates don't take them seriously, resulting in great peril.

The little girl kissing the lumipoo momp is interesting. Most lumipoo momps are too spiky for anybody to want to kiss them. However, they don't get their spikes until they're three. So maybe the one that looks like a cute duck is a baby lumipoo? This would be a useful plot device because it would allow us the explore one of the lumipoo momp's main weaknesses - that kisses make them fall asleep instantly.

I like the fact that Mustafa has used what we already know about momps (that they can be sucked up a hover) to create a realistic plot thread. We will almost certainly have lumipoo momps getting sucked up vacuum cleaners in our monster book.
