Murderous Mythical Creatures You Wouldn't Want to Meet!

by Fiona MacDonald

Book Overview

It's a full moon...what's that sound? Is it the howl of the werewolf, ready to pounce? There's a tapping at the window...could it be a vampire, coming to take his deadly bite? This book runs down the deadliest creatures of myth and legend, from the towering one-eyed Cyclops to the elusive Yeti of the Himalayas. Readers will learn how the snake-haired Gorgon, Medusa, could turn them to stone with just one ghastly glance, and how the mermaid's sweet song could lure them to a watery grave. These murderous creatures are truly terrifying!
