Description
Dive into the wild and wonderful world of cryptids in this collection of 50 "hidden creatures" who have captured our imaginations, but whose existence remains unproven . . .
Traveling across continents, you'll encounter stories and accounts of dinosaur-like beasts; lake-dwelling, long-necked serpents; hairy, bipedal ape-men; gigantic birds, and many other freaky and fascinating characters. Learn about familiar names like Sasquatch and the Kraken and discover lesser-known creatures like the Mongolian Death Worm and the Namibian Flying Snake.
Written by respected monster expert Emily Zarka, this global guide to cryptids blends fascinating facts, rich folklore, key eyewitness accounts, and striking visuals—equipping you with everything you need, should you ever encounter one of these mysterious creatures.
