This is a Finnish guidebook to monsters and other creatures. The monsters are divided into spesific groups such as snakes, horses, birds etc. Each of the creatures are presented with information about their livinghabits, appearance, size and other details.
The book also lists dangerous levels on each creature and how to possible to survive their attack. For example dangerous level for zombies is high but you might escape from them if you feed them something salty. Running also helps. The information is quite funny usually but it makes me wonder why they had to write into the introduction that monsters doesn't really exist. If they don't exist, why would you need to know ways to escape from them?!
Overall the book is very good and the illustrations are amazing. The reason why i'm not giving it the full five stars is my little doubts on if i can really trust this one. The book says that for example the Basilisk has a head of a rooster and body of a snake. In Harry Potter the basilisk most definitely not had a head of a rooster! So which one to trust?! Also another creature from Astrid Lindgrens books doesn't seem really that correct. It totally can be that these other books are wrong, but they are the versions i'm and a lot of people are used to, so it's really hard to think otherwise and therefore i cannot support this book with the five stars.
