Inviting readers to join him on a "monster hunt," Arnosky ponders the existence of "mysterious creatures" and compares real animals once thought to be folkloric (or extinct) with legendary creatures Bigfoot, Nessie, and Champ from Lake Champlain. Characteristic Arnosky illustrations support a conversational narrative that questions what's real or possible, making this a friendly outing intended to inspire further research. Resources not included.
