From the publisher

From the deepest, darkest depths of the Atlantic Ocean to the cacophonous canopies of the Amazon rain forest, Basher History: Legendary Creatures brings to life the weirdest, creepiest, and most amazing beasts rumored to have roamed our planet. Featuring well-known creatures like Bigfoot, Mermaids, and Vampires, Legendary Creatures invites you to journey to the forests of Uganda to discover the fierce Ndalawo, a leopard with a hyena-like cry, or to travel through Mayan ruins to meet the ominous Camazotz, a night-flying hybrid of man and bat. Basher’s distinctive, colorful illustrations bring these magical mythological beings to life, all the while keeping kids in-the-know about the diverse range of folklore across the world.
