Children's Poets Laureate J. Patrick Lewis and Kenn Nesbitt team up to offer a smart, stealthy tour of the creatures of shadowy myth and fearsome legend—the enticing, the humorous, and the strange.

Readers may have to look twice—the poems in this book are disguised as street signs, newspaper headlines, graffiti, milk cartons, and more!

From School Library Journal Gr 2–6—An entertaining take on a naturally interesting subject, this title pairs comic book-style art with poems on cryptozoology. The term is defined in a blurb on the first page, while the last few pages include a useful description of creatures such as the Beast of Bodmin Moor, the Lizard Man of Scape Ore Swamp, and the Mongolian Death Worm. Not quite concrete poems, these selections integrate text and design with creative results. Though the illustrations vary, all are rendered in graphic style. The Kraken, Gambo, and Lusca are presented as entries circled in red pen from the classified section of the Davy Jones Dispatch: "Free to a Good Home: Baby Luscas (Half Octopus, Half Shark)." Similarly, the poem about the Chupacabra is a marked-up "Wanted" poster, while images of "Moth-Away" spray accompany the poem on the Mothman. Though some selections are more informative than others, all are vivid, dynamic, and fun. VERDICT A great choice, ideal for group sharing and browsers alike.—Heather Talty, formerly at Columbia Grammar & Preparatory School, New York City

A fun, clever poetry book By Janet Hamilton Summary: Each two-page spread features a creature from the files of cryptozoology (creatures rumored to exist, but which have never been scientifically documented). The actual animal isn’t shown in full, just a part or hint of it, with something reporting a sighting in the form of a poem. For instance, Bigfoot’s entry includes a milk carton with this verse: “Missing/Last seen: walking in the forest/Height and weight: much more than you/Gender: unknown/Hair: all over/Shoe size (Rumored): 92”. The first page tells about cryptozoology, and the endpapers include a list of all the creatures in the book with a brief description of each. Grades 2-6.Pros: This is one clever book, and the topic is sure to be popular with young readers, who will want to spend some time studying the illustrations. A fun and easy introduction to poetry by two former children’s poet laureates.Cons: If you get this book out of the library (which you should), the creatures’ descriptions on the endpapers are partially covered by a taped-down book jacket

The book layout and the illustrations are wonderfully rendered by MinaLima so that you get a sense of what the poetry is going to be about just from looking at the pages. I wasn't so enamored with the 'poems' since they often felt overly vague and weren't always really poems, but strange descriptions. The idea behind the book is really interesting as it's supposed to be poems about Cryptids. However, the execution was sometimes lacking and not always fun or easy to figure out. Thankfully more information is available about the included Cryptids in the end papers, but I would have liked more of that information reflected in the writing. Still, you get a sense of the mysterious nature of the creatures from the illustrations and that, at least, makes the book worth looking at.

By This Kid Reviews Books Why I liked this book- I know this book won’t be released until later this month, but put it on your list for poetry month in April. What better way to get kids into reading poetry? The authors are both Children’s Poet Laureates and their expertise in their craft shines through. The poems are short, fun to read and they are about a cool topic -cryptids! Kids are going to love them. The illustrations have a comic book feel to them to add to the kid friendliness of the book. I found this book a blast to read. As an older kid, I enjoyed all the information and back-story in the front and back parts of the book. The colorful illustrations bring the whole thing together.*NOTE* I got a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review
