Book Description
I’ve written a number of books about legendary beings such as Bigfoot, Dragons, Thunderbirds, Sea Monsters, Giants, and more. I also wrote a book titled “The Mythical People of Ireland” which covered the Tuatha Da Danann, Druids, and Leprechaun elves. The information I found for that book caused me to become more curious about the little people generally. There are legends of the Little People all over the world. Even more interesting is that a race of very small people who were close to three feet tall were uncovered recently in Indonesia. This race is called the Flores Man and was of a similar size to the beings in many of the legends of the little people. This find is amazing because none of the other legendary beings have confirmed evidence of those little people in archeological sites. These findings add a lot of credibility to those old legends. In this book we cover these little beings from different areas of the world. This includes where they came from, stories about them possibly coming from different dimensions, and stories about sightings of them. Hope you enjoy this adventure into what seems like it might be a real race of intelligent legends.

Elves and Fairies
Author: Kris Hirschmann
Publisher: Referencepoint Press
ISBN: 9781601524683
Category : Elves
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Whether they step from the pages of mythology or materialize in eyewitness accounts, monsters and mythical creatures hold a special appeal for teenagers and adults alike. Stories of mean or mischievious goblins, of grotesque one-eyed giants, of soul-stealing demons, and of serpents that rise from the ocean depths both fascinate and frighten us-and if truth be told, they also tug at our sense of wonder about that which we cannot know for certain. The Monsters and Mythical Creatures series presents tales, old and new, of the mysterious creatures that populate the human imagination and, in some cases, alter people's lives. Lively narrative and strange facts will appeal to casual readers and student researchers alike. Source notes, a bibliography for further research, and index provide additional tools for readers and report writers. Book jacket.
