Adventures In Tinyville The room was freezing. Cold winter mornings are the hardest to wake up to. Lance Nylorac hates cold mornings. He couldn't help but think this as the freezing cold air rushed over his body."Lance!", his mother called impatiently from downstairs. He suddenly begin to wish he had kept his blanket on. Jumping to his feet, he stumbled over to the door."I'm coming mom!"
