Following on from the award-winning 'Real-life Dragons and their
Stories of Survival', read on to find out the fascinating stories
of ten real-life sea monsters! Around the world, sailors from
ancient times onwards have told stories of colossal deep-sea
creatures that capsized ships and terrorised crews. Far from home,
and often venturing into the unknown, however, it's no wonder
sailors put the dangers they faced down to the threat from sinister
sea beasts. The oceans are mysterious places, and the deep-sea is
one of the last places on Earth to be explored. So, while there may
be no such thing as a sea serpent or mermaid, there are plenty of
other weird and wonderful creatures lurking down there. Some of
these real-life animals are the inspiration behind the sea monsters
of myth. Others are so fantastical in their own right, it's
difficult to believe that they actually exist. This book brings
together 10 real-life sea monsters, with fascinating facts, figures
and folklore. There are also tales of how these extraordinary
creatures were discovered, and about their adaptations for
surviving in the wild. This high-interest approach to the natural
world shows the diversity of nature, evolution and adaptation and
can be used to support the science curriculum study of living
things at key stage two. Full-colour photographs combined with
illustrations make this a beautiful and fascinating introduction to
real-life sea monsters around the world.
