Sinopsis

Meet your favorite monsters, fairies, heroes, and tricksters from all around the world in this guide to mythical creatures.

Enter the enchanting world of mythical creatures from all around the world and explore the history behind them in this illustrated mythology book for children aged 5-9.

Say hello to Bigfoot in the forests of North America and learn about the Native American traditions that inspired its story. Voyage to Japan to meet kitsune, supernatural nine-tailed foxes that can turn into humans. Then jump onboard an ancient storm-battered ship to learn why mermaids were the last thing a sailor wanted to see! Learn about the societies that spawned these legendary creatures, from Ancient Greece to the indigenous tribes of Australia, and find out what the beasts tell us about the people who created them.

With magic and mystery in every page, this myth book offers:

- The facts behind each myth for a deeper understanding.
- Insights into cultures from around the world and their creation stories.
- Beautiful full-color illustrations by Pham Quang Phuc.

Mythical Beasts and Magical Creatures is the only kids’ guide to magical creatures that explores the history behind the mythology in both an engaging and educational way. Read the supernatural stories that bring the history of mythology and magical creatures to life, and explore the societies that birthed these legendary creatures found in narratives from Ancient Greek mythology, Australian and Native American folktales. From narwhal tusks inspiring the legend of unicorns, to dinosaur bones creating rumours of dragons, there is an interesting story behind every magical beast.
