This is a great children's reader. High quality with lots of pictures and interesting text. I would only slightly caution the potential buyer who is familiar with leveled readers that this is a DK level 3. I think DK readers require a higher level of reading comprehension than other level 3 books. Compared to other readers, I would place this at a level 4. BUT, it is a WONDERFUL book.

Rated A for awesooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooome. I never knew That There thousands of Bigfoot/bigfeet I don't know but if you guys do please post in the comments but if not I'm going with Saquatch for now. But anyways it was kind of funny when one of the sasquatch actually ATE TOBACCO. And that's pretty much it. Bye! P.S DON'T forget to let me know about Bigfoot/bigfeet.

This book stopped Christmas morning gift opening for a few moments while our VERY reluctant 8-year old reader paused to read a few pages of his newest book. I don't know how much higher praise a book could get!

I read this book myself as a child and it sparked a life long interest in Sasquatch and the Loch Ness Monster. I bought it for my nephew this Christmas and he loves it too! Colourful, easy to read and lots of information for budding young cryptozoologists!

Inspired grandson to read some way above his existing level. He was totally absorbed. Excellent content with just the right amount of text to challenge, without overwhelming him.
