Learn how to find Kraken, Mothman, Microbats, and more in this fun, fact-filled, STEM-based cryptozoology book for fans of The Book of Mythical Beasts and Magical Creatures.
For years the kraken was considered a mythical beast. Then, in 2004, high-tech cameras captured a photo of a living giant squid. Advances in technology have provided scientists with new tools to study previously undiscovered/unresearched habitats: high-tech cameras, forensic analysis, underwater robots, bioacoustics, infrared sensors, drones, remote control photography and measurement tools, airborne DNA, footprint identification, and more.
Catching Cryptids explores these technological advances in a fun way by pairing them with mythical creatures and discussing how modern technology could be used to locate or "catch" these beasts. The book includes a mini history of each cryptid, along with interesting facts about the corresponding field of science, and spot illustrations throughout.
Featuring over 45 creatures found on land, in water, and among the skies, Catching Cryptids will leave readers wondering what's next? The phoenix? Dragons? The possibilities are endless!

Kim Long is a middle child and the only one of her siblings who did not pursue a true profession in math or science. Instead, she finds herself writing books featuring . . . math and science. Go figure. Her middle grade novel, Lexi Magill and the Teleportation Tournament was a Texas Bluebonnet Master List Selection. When not writing, she enjoys biking, board games, and hanging out with friends and family.
Nicole Miles is an illustrator from The Bahamas who currently lives in West Yorkshire (UK) with her pet snake and human boyfriend. She loves any opportunity to inform and entertain with her illustrations.
