Connect the dots, then color in the drawings, and suddenly 29 marvelous mythical creatures such as the Chinese Dragon, Loch Ness Monster, Leviathan, and Maya Sky Serpent will come to life. But that's not the whole adventure. Track down each animal and you'll soon discover where it lived, how to pronounce its name, and where its myth started, as well as the actual legends themselves. There's the Griffin from high in the mountains, who lines its nest with pure gold; the beautiful Unicorn; the Phoenix, who always rises from its own ashes; and the Native American Thunderbird, who, according to legend, created thunder and lightning. Follow the coloring tips if you want to make each monster the right shade--or use your imagination and pick your own colors.
