Every page provides a new description of a hidden creature you may never have heard of, along with the history and storytelling traditions that have kept their legends alive. \u003cem\u003eThe Spotter's Guide to Cryptids\u003c\/em\u003e covers these beings from around the globe, with chapters organized by continent. Readers will encounter dinosaur-like beasts, lake-dwelling serpents, hairy bipedal ape-men, gigantic birds, and many other freaky and fascinating characters. From familiar beasts like sasquatch and kraken to lesser-known creatures like the Mongolian death worm and the Namibian flying snake, monster expert Dr. Emily Zarka makes every reader a cryptozoologist, providing a thoughtful and global look at cryptids and what we can learn from them about human nature and imagination.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57555322831221,"sku":"9781324112242","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/spotters-guide-to-cryptids","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
