I recently bought this book for our upper elementary students. It is a quick read that covers nineteen stories about mysteries around the world. Each one is about two to three pages, and each one has a "The Strange Truth" box at the end of the chapter that states what is believed and what is unlikely. Students interested in phenomena will enjoy book. Even I learned about some phenomena that I had never heard of before reading this book!
