Wonderful memories!
I read this book when I was a very young girl. It opened my imagination incredibly. It's a wonderful book and I'm glad to see it's still in print. I'm buying a copy for my daughter to read!

Whimsically scientific cataloguing of dragons and unicorns!
Have you ever wanted to have a comprehensive reference guide of two of the best loved mythological creatures ever - the dragon or the unicorn? This book is that reference! The text covers both creatures with a great deal of depth, including such things as classification of "genus" and "species", habitats, and even migratory patterns. Different passages are accompanied by "scientific" diagrams and illustrations, exactly as a standard zoological text would contain. In addition, this tiny gem of a book has information regarding myths and legends from various cultures concerning dragons and unicorns. All of this information is synthesized beautifully, and this book is an absolute delight, for people who like biological science, dragons, or unicorns!
