Beasts and Monsters

116 pp. | Kingfisher/Macmillan | May, 2010 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7534-1936-6 $9.99
(3) 4-6 Legends series. Illustrated by Thomas Yeates. Stories from Horowitz's previously published Kingfisher Book of Myths and Legends are presented in these two volumes, modestly re-edited and with new illustrations. Under Horowitz's hand, the tales from around the world have a casual tone, accessible language, dry humor, and just enough gore to keep reluctant readers going. Black-and-white illustrations add some excitement and visual interest. Review covers these Legends titles: Battles and Quests and Beasts and Monsters.
