Stories about fantastical creatures have been told from ancient times, from magnificent unicorns to fire‑breathing dragons. Even though these mythical creatures don’t exist, stories are still told today about mysterious creatures called cryptids lurking in secluded places. And when some real-life animals are stranger than fiction, who knows what else could exist out there!

This pack contains 6 copies of Mythical Animals and Mysterious Creatures for use in small group teaching.
