Mythical creatures. They've fascinated us for thousands of years and have featured in stories and tales ranging from ancient civilizations such as Babylon and Persia, up until the last century. But what are these mythical creatures? What do they look like? Where can they be found? And more importantly - what do they do? 'A Book of Mythical Creatures' is a book about those mythical creatures. Not the stories and the myths so much but about the creatures themselves. The book provides other names the creatures may be known by, countries where they can be found, a description and what the creatures do. This book is meant as a reference book and not a collection of myths and tales about those creatures.
