Read 2 times. Last read April 2, 2022.
An excellent resource for children that explains the myth of the kraken, the history of the myth, and the actual science that might account for the existence of these tales. This book is clear, concise, well-sourced, and a lot of fun! Resources for further reading, a glossary, and even a listing of modern references to krakens make this book all the more useful. And of course, the many illustrations and photographs simply add to the joy.
