Fearsome Creatures of the Lumberwoods

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Tom Mead. Supposed true stories of cryptids teach young readers to survive the North American wilderness. The twenty short tales of fearsome creatures inspired by American folklore read like the guidebook of an eccentric monster hunter. Johnson's snarky humor lightens the weird and genuinely scary stories; readers of all ages will cower at Mead's creepy glow-in-the-dark illustrations. An appendix contains "facts" about each creature.
