Reviews
Written in present tense, these titles captivate with descriptive prose and quantity and depth of information. . . .Though texts identify the creatures as mythical, enough realistic details are provided as to seemingly root them in the real world, blurring lines between fantasy and fact. . . .Recommended for public and school collections for browsing and recreational reading. A popular, in-demand topic that can be useful in units on myths and folklore.-- School Library Journal
