Book excerpt: These magical, mysterious creatures and places will fascinate children-- and so will the fun and elaborate color mazes, each set inside the shape of a highlighted mythical being. The diverse and international collection of intriguing topics ranges from the lost island of Atlantis and the peaceable kingdom of Camelot to friendly gnomes, bloodsucking chupacabras, and the dinosaur-like Mokele Mbembe. Plus, there' s the Greek "Cyclops"; Japanese "Kappa "(water spirits); Scandinavian "Kraken "(a huge multi-armed sea monster); flying "Kongamato "of Zambia; and the famous New Jersey Devil. Each maze comes with a bit of enticing background information, complete with theories about how the legend originated.
