Sinopsis

For centuries, folk tales about vampires, werewolves, zombies and the undead have captivated and spooked children. There are some creatures that we just love to be scared by.
 
Vampires, Werewolves & Zombies collects 40 of these mythical characters from American, European, African, Chinese and Arabian folklore. Ranging from such well known literary examples as Bram Stoker’s Dracula to historical cases, such as the human blood-drinking of Elizabeth Bathory, to the Chinese Jiang Shi myth and Vulkodlak, a Slavic werewolf, Vampires, Werewolves & Zombies brings together the most exciting and ghoulish of these characters.
 
Illustrated throughout with outstanding, annotated, full-colour artworks, each of the characters featured includes easy-to-follow accounts of its story, maps of its geographical origins, and factfile boxes describing the different characteristics of each. This engaging and accessible book is both fun, educational and just a little bit scary.

    I am the river. Blue and green, fast and flowing, 
    sweeping river grasses aside … 
    moving between Lake Erie and Detroit. 
      
    The Detroit River has long had a story to tell. It has seen a time before people. And it has seen many faces cross its waters, from Indigenous people guiding canoes to settlers on its banks and freedom seekers riding the underground railroad north toward liberty, with Bob-Lo Island at the river’s end, so close to Canada. At one time, a giant steamboat carried hundreds of excited children and adults to the amusement park that was built on Bob-Lo. 
      
    But Sarah E. Ray discovered in 1945 that not all people were invited on this boat, to this island, once a symbol of the journey to freedom. It depended, she discovered, on the color of your skin. 
      
    This is the dramatic story of how one young woman’s courage could create a dramatic turning point that would stand out proudly, and forevermore, in the history of a river older than the country called America.
