The science behind mermaids, werewolves, and bigfoot / Joy Lin and Violet Tobacco.

Lin, Joy, (author.). Tobacco, Violet, (illustrator.).

Summary:

"There are many stories about half fish, half human creatures and humans that change into animals at night. But how would these legends work if they were walking around today? In this exploration of classic myths, young readers jump into the history of where these myths may have started. Then, through fascinating science information, young readers learn how these myths could scientifically work. Illustrations showing each myth pair closely with science information to allow for maximum comprehension of STEM topics for readers."--Provided by publisher.
