Open the pages of this first pop-up book and unleash fifteen incredible monsters . . . if you dare. From the award-winning creator of My First Pop-Up Dinosaurs comes a second pop-up treasury featuring everything from North America’s peculiar jackalope to the brilliant, luck-bearing Sarimanok of the Philippines, from the fiercely majestic griffin of Egypt to the spellbinding firebird of Russia.
