Tony has more teeth. Eleanor is bigger. Hector is weirder. As monsters go, Leonardo is simply terrible: he can't scare anyone. And no wonder. In Willems' witty, angular renderings, he is an adorable little terror. But he has a plan--to find "the most scaredy-cat kid in the whole world and scare the tuna salad out of him!" That leads him to Sam. After Leonardo performs a full repertoire of growls, glares and gesticulations, Sam bawls. Not because of Leonardo, alas, but because of a monumental toddler's hard-luck saga that he tells the monster...

...ultimate extinction. And that will be the fate of fanatical terrorists everywhere. Ray Gregory Norfolk, Virginia, U.S. I am impressed by Time's reporting on the war in Iraq. But I am disturbed by the Bush Administration's claim that the fighting there is part of the "war on terror." This isn't a war on terror.

...gays-in-the-priesthood saga was not the first troublesome episode of poorly managed information flows from the Curia since Benedict took over. Most notably, a leaked version of the Vatican's reaction to the July 7 terror attacks in London erroneously included the Pope using the highly charged phrase "anti-Christian" to describe the bombing. Several sources have traced the incorrect draft to Secretary of State Angelo Sodano's office. Navarro-Valls, who reportedly is at odds with Sodano, is still running the press office, but is less and less visible. Meanwhile, Benedict himself doesn't seem particularly preoccupied...

On Wednesday, the President is to make remarks on ?the War on Terror? at the Navy Academy, in Annapolis, Md., then speak at a reception for Maryland Lt. Gov.

...would also improve Washington's tarnished image in the Middle East. Although most of the nearby governments believe toppling Saddam Hussein was good for Iraq and the region, the Arab world has almost universally condemned the U.S. invasion. Beyond that, many local leaders believe that the war has fueled terrorism in the region, as in the recent triple suicide bombing in Amman, Jordan. "You have ended up with a great big area--from the Jordanian border to the outskirts of Baghdad--being a lawless and terror-infested territory," says Ali Shukri, a former adviser to Jordan's King Hussein...
