      Synopsis

      Is it generally safe to walk by dragon weyrs on sunny days? Do dragons really lay golden eggs? Do dragon teeth have any medicinal value? And what about unicorns: Do some rare ones have two horns, and when aren't unicorns white? What is a unicorn "sneeze call," and what exactly is the best way to capture a unicorn, anyway?

      Find the answers to these and other questions in this charming and carefully researched book that presents the first scientific look at two of the earth's most mysterious and elusive creatures. From the evolution and anatomy of dragons and unicorns to their own special skills (fire-breathing in dragons, reliable virgin detection in unicorns), this unique book of whimsical zoology, complete with drawings, will delight and enchant any modern reader.

      October 13, 2002: This book is great. If you want to know more about dragons or unicorns, this is the book for you. From the eveloution of dragons to dragon children; from unicorn shades to the unicorn speices, ending with Lifetime:How Many You Saw Records, this a great book. I even did my 6th grade speech on it! Ever since I read this, I wanted to be a cryptozoologist. You will love this book!
