From the Inside Flap
(back cover)
Prepare to enter a realm of monsters and magical creatures--the stuff of dreams . . . and of nightmares! Here is a place where man-eating giants roam the earth, where sea monsters lurk in the oceans' darkness, and where fire-breathing dragons spread terror through the land.
Discover fearsome beasts, such as the snake-haired Gorgons and the crocodile-headed Ammut, as well as creatures of beauty, such as the majestic phoenix and the graceful unicorn. Follow the Greek hero Theseus through the labyrinth to kill the bull-headed Minotaur, or look on as brave dragon slayers engage their foes in mortal combat. Watch as the winged hippogriff flies across the skies and terrible sea monsters snatch sailors to their doom.
Mythical Creatures is a book filled with the roars and blood-curdling cries of beings you would pray never to meet. Open it if you dare!
CONTAINS TEN INTERACTIVE ITEMS INCLUDING:
• A PULL-OUT MYTHICAL CREATURES WALL POSTER
• A LABYRINTH BOARD GAME FEATURING THE BULL-MAN MINOTAUR
• POP-UP PHOENIX • DRAGON-SLAYER BOOKLET • CARDS & MORE
