Very well-illustrated poetry/picture book. All of the creatures are from folklore/mythological tales around the world. C.2008 genre-poetry
slimikin's review against another edition
2.0
The poems are simple, easy to read, but don't really distinguish themselves from one another, and while some of the pictures are truly beautiful, others are rather lackluster. I'd also hoped the book would use the poems as a starting point and then elaborate more fully on the nature of the creatures, but the notes on each were limited to a brief sentence or two and, in several instances, didn't explain anything more than the creature's location of origin.
