We’ve checked out every book our library has to offer on this subject and today I’m sharing some of our favorite ones!
Books for Kids Fascinated by Bigfoot, Sasquatch & the Yeti
This list contains books about bigfoot, Sasquatch or the yeti in a few genres. Some books are more nonfiction is style, although I’m pretty sure these creatures are all made up. The rest of the books are fictional picture books, readers and chapter books. All these books are great for getting kids interested in reading!
