Summary

Inspired by her popular Wild Thing podcast, journalist Laura Krantz incorporates the scientific method and her journalistic skills to determine if Bigfoot is realWhen journalist Laura Krantz discovered that her long-lost cousin, Grover Krantz, a distinguished anthropologist and professor at Washington State University, had devoted much of his career to the search for Bigfoot, she couldn’t quite believe it。 A natural skeptic and a strong believer in facts, Krantz decided to conduct her own quest for the most famous and elusive mythical creature。
    
The Search for Sasquatch takes readers through the big guy’s fun, fascinating, and complex world, posing the question: Could Bigfoot be out there? Exploring the gray area between myth and science, Krantz takes readers on a strange, surreal, and surprising hunt for the fabled Sasquatch—showing us how to challenge our gut assumptions and open our minds to new possibilities, to think critically, and to use the scientific method along the way。 The Search for Sasquatch asks readers to evaluate the evidence it presents and make up their own minds, all while considering why Bigfoot might be important—even if we don’t find him。

This book was a fantastic exploration into the hunt for Bigfoot。 I loved how the author included a great explanation of the scientific method。 The book's diction was easy to follow, and I liked how the author engaged the reader through the text。 I would include this one in my elementary library。 This book was a fantastic exploration into the hunt for Bigfoot。 I loved how the author included a great explanation of the scientific method。 The book's diction was easy to follow, and I liked how the author engaged the reader through the text。 I would include this one in my elementary library。 。。。more

Are you curious about whether Sasquatch exist or not? This is definitely the book for you! I am Mom to 2 Squatchers aka Sasquatch Hunters。 This book was chalked full of information on Sasquatch and the hunt for evidence that Sasquatch exists using science。 We were kept on the edge of our seat while we waited to learn about the DNA evidence。 I highly recommend this book for anyone curious about the existence of Sasquatch。
