legends of Big Foot
IN SEARCH OF SASQUATCH by Kelly Milner Halls (Houghton Mifflin 2011) details the myths and legends surrounding Sasquatch, aka Bigfoot, aka Yeti, Abominable Snowman, etc. Halls examines the facts of sightings and evidence through interviews with leading experts in the field. The layout of this informational picture book breaks the text into manageable pieces for all readers. Photos and other illustrations serve to enhance the text as well. Those readers who find this book interesting would also enjoy Halls' TALES OF THE CRYPTIDS and some of the other books included in appended material. <28>
