(4) K-3 Illustrated by Laura Francesca Filippucci. Join explorer Basil Bernard Barnswhitten as he travels the globe in search of creatures rare and unusual. Which will he find? Which are extinct? Which were only ever legend? Clues in the pictures and the clunky rhymed text help readers decide. Double-page spread illustrations evoke the inexplicable thrill of musty museums and forgotten spaces. Brief information about the creatures is appended.
