What's M is for Monster About

Publisher Summary

Monster, mystery, and fantasy fans of all ages will enjoy this alphabetical tribute. Readers will meet the fascinating main characters featured in many myths and legends. Award-winning children’s book author and former U.S. Children’s Poet Laureate J. Patrick Lewis not only examines creatures of popular legends such as mummies, werewolves, and zombies, but he also introduces lesser-known-but-just-as-menacing monsters such as the Roc and the giant called Xing Tian. Includes origins of the Frankenstein story as well as creatures such as the Loch Ness Monster, Baba Yaga, and the Phoenix.
