If you liked Monsters and Water Beasts, you'll enjoy these!

I just finished reading some good books (for those of us with inquiring minds).
For cryptid fans, there's "The Loch Ness Monster and other Lake Mysteries." It's written as a graphic novel, comic book style, and fun to read. The author is Gary Jeffrey and the artist Bob Moulder.

And even though I don't believe in"urban myths" I like to read how people can be fooled. If you do too, try "Museum of Hoaxes" by Alex Boese and "Fooled You! Fakes and Hoaxes Through the Years" by Elaine Pascoe, illustrator Laurie Keller (one of my favorite artists).
Do you have any books to recommend?

Apparently an MP in Canada believes in the existence of Bigfoot, or he wouldn't try to get a law passed to protect it.
Here's the article...
Also “moot,” says a Canadian lawmaker, is the debate over whether
Bigfoot exists. Just in case, Mike Lake argued that he deserves
protection as an endangered species, along with whooping cranes and
blue whales, Agence France-Presse reported. The petition reads:

Therefore, the petitioners request the House of Commons to establish
immediate, comprehensive legislation to affect immediate protection of
Bigfoot.

Almost 500 people have signed it in Edmonton, Alberta.
