Strange but True: 10 of the World's Greatest Mysteries Explained by Kathryn Hulick

Badge stating Reviewed by Sandra, children's librarian

I love a good ghost story, and this book was fun to read. It has stories of hauntings, UFO encounters and mysteries from around the world. The book also provides more detail, going into the history and science related to each story to possibly explain these encounters and mysteries. Each chapter of the book focuses on a different mystery including the mystery of the lost city of Atlantis, the curse of King Tut’s tomb and the Bermuda Triangle. The book is full of awesome pictures that bring each story to life.
