Finding Bigfoot Everything You Need To Know is a really good book. The book is in full color, covers everything from how to search for bigfoot, what to look for, where to look, ect. even some recipes. Many well documented sightings are included in the book, I stumbled by chance upon this book in Walmart of all places and snatched it up, it was like it was waiting there for me. The book is a new release 2013, 150 pages and was only $12.74 brand new, get the book, excellent book and far better than other books I have bought or read on bigfoot or cryptozoology, Animal Planet did an excellent job with this book.
Finding Bigfoot: Everything You Need to Know (Animal Planet) - was bought as a gift for someone. It has good pictures and information. It is written in a style for that seems to be for upper elementary kids.
While I don't doubt Moneymakers' belief in Bigfoot, I do find his method of research to be sorely lacking. For years I followed the BFRO website religiously. I took it all in, Then he started taking expeditions out to look ..........for a price. Didn't look to scientific to me, but it helped pay the bills I guess. I quit following the BFRO as much. Then he hit Animal Planet and his methods went right down the toilet. The idea of running around the forest yelling to illicit anything he could claim to be a response. I guess the book was inevitable. it is only my opinion, but I donât think anyone has harmed the science of cryptozoology and the hunt for bigfoot more than Moneymaker.Iâve seen this book and it is no better than the seriously flawed TV program. It will not find its way onto my bookshelf.
This is the companion piece to the popular Animal Planet Highly-rated Series and it is a good one, though certainly written more for the younger set. It gives the reader all the basics for researching this topic, such as what to take into the field, camping tips, what foods to leave out, what to look for in the field and other important things to remember. There are also profiles of the four cast members, recipes, jokes and even recommended books and websites on Bigfoot. Two things about this book bothered me a bit, though-the constant use of the grammatically incorrect term Bigfoots (which any English teacher will quickly educate the kids on) and the P/G Film location being in Humboldt County, CA, when in fact it was Del Norte County. Now, of course I realize the usage of Bigfoots is to denote more than one, but to me it would be simpler and less confusing to kids to use Bigfoot creatures. Having said that, though, this is a good book and worthy of being on all Cryptozoology bookshelves, or your kid's bedside table. I do recommend it.
My daughter is fascinated by Bigfoot. This was a gift and it worked out great because they also had this on tv at same time she received it!
My 10 year old nephew was thrilled to receive this book, along with a Bigfoot hunting kit for Christmas. This is a good size book with a lot of excellent information in it. Lots of pictures, and written in a way that it can be perused and enjoyed by children and adults alike. I can't wait to go camping with my nephew, who is surely now an expert Bigfoot hunter.
My kiddos liked the book, though they weren't as excited as I was to receive it (two boys, ages 6 & 8). They looked at it for a couple of days and haven't cracked the book open since. I thought they would be more into it. Great photos and information though. Definitely would be awesome for a child obsessed with bigfoot.
This is for my 8 year old son who is obsessed with the show on Animal Planet. I mainly bought it just so it would be him reading something besides his chapter books for school. Very well made book and much more content than expected. I feel sure he will love it. Would definitely recommend.
