Real-Life Mysteries by Susan Martineau
“Excellent, informative non-fiction book covering many mysterious sightings and events. Each case file begins with a 2 page spread introducing and summarising the sighting or event. The following 2 page spread discusses the evidence, likely theories and offers further similar mysteries to investigate. The whole book is beautifully presented with eye-catching illustrations and a crime scene investigation style layout with drawings of post it notes, string and drawing pins and notes circled in red pen. The text is split into easy to consume chunks. Where unusual or technical vocabulary is used a handy definition is included explaining the pronunciation, origin and meaning of the word. These are also collected in a glossary. This book will inform and delight anyone who enjoys reading about a strange ghost story, mysterious monster or unexplained disappearance and be a great starting point for further research.”
