Description
“A compendium of strange and creepy stories “written” by Dr McCreebor – an eminent Victorian explorer and philosopher. McCreebor discusses shrunken heads and witches’ charms, while a 21st century scientist who “discovered” the book gives a modern day perspective in his notes in the margin.”
“Any publication from Wide Eyed is always going to be on the top of my ‘to read’ list because it is guaranteed to be exquisitely designed, thoroughly researched and fascinating to read…Stunning black and white illustrations accompany each of the weird but wonderful observations in the book.”
"This brilliant book is full of factual information packed into a fictional frame, perfect for children who want to discover humankind's seriously strange past."
