Can an 8-foot-tall hairy creature with size 18 feet remain hidden forever? This book in the Into the Unknown series looks at how an ancient legend of indigenous peoples became a twenty-first century mystery. The Search for Bigfoot examines why believers called Bigfooters swear the creature exists. Nonbelievers, meanwhile, offer reasons that film and footprints fail to provide enough evidence. Full-color images and fast facts show readers the many sides of the Bigfoot story. A timeline tracks important moments while a glossary adds the vocabulary words needed by any Bigfoot hunter. A list of reading and viewing resources gets investigators started on learning more.

Reviews and Awards for The Search for Bigfoot

"Gr 3-5–These attention-grabbing titles employ brevity to appeal to striving readers. The series compiles interesting commentaries taken from actual “personal experiences” people claim to have had, including cryptid sightings and alien abductions. Most of these have been debunked, but the reports provide entertaining accounts that don’t talk down to readers, even when it’s pointed out there’s no proof to substantiate them. The UFO volume is especially well balanced, the ghost title presents various international ghost legends, and the volume about aliens is current, citing data from 2024 and 2025. New vocabulary is boldfaced in blue type and defined in a glossary. The volumes make their points quickly; there’s no intensive investigation into the topics, but students will appreciate these entertaining, informative, and well-presented explorations of popular subjects.
VERDICT: So appealing that readers won’t mind that these accounts have been debunked. Recommended for schools and public libraries."
