Book Review & Giveaway: Finding Bigfoot: Everything You Need to Know Book


**Product was received in exchange for an honest review**


A howl in the distance. The biggest footprint you’ve ever seen. These are the indicators that lead us to believe that he is out there - Bigfoot.
James "Bobo" Fay, Matt Moneymaker, Cliff Barackman, and Ranae Holland—the trackers from Animal Planet’s runaway hit, Finding Bigfoot—have spent years gathering evidence to try to find out the truth about whether Bigfoot exists, and it's now all compiled in a highly designed book filled with photos, maps, and all sorts of extras from the show’s archives.
This monster book is chock-full of Bigfoot history, top sightings, a Bigfoot profile, how to start your own Bigfoot expedition, and tons more! Skeptics will be given all the information they need to decide for themselves if they believe, and enthusiasts will revel in this essential Bigfoot book.



Our Thoughts
Finding our that I was going to be able to do a review on this book was huge for me! I'm a total die hard fan of the Animal Planet show Finding Bigfoot. I love watching Bobo, Matt, Cliff and the skeptical Ranae (although Bobo is my favorite). My kids (10, 5, and 3) love watching too. 

We had taken the book on vacation with us at the beginning of September so we could read it together over the weekend but our plans were averted by my Father-in-Law who quickly latched onto the book and read it cover to cover in two days. So plans changed but when we were able to pry the book out of my Father-in-Law's hands the kids and I read the book together. 

We were not disappointed at all in the book. It was a great "how to" start including what to look for in the wild, what kind of sounds to listen for, areas of interest, and what they may eat. There are even a few recipes that my ten-year-old has been BEGGING me to make so he can try to lure a 'squatch into our yard. It also has a lot of really interesting personal stories. Those personal stories alone make it worth the read! The whole book is interesting. 

This book is geared more toward the tween and up ages. My ten-year-old reads above grade level and had a hard time at times with reading it but it was a good challenge for him! And obviously my Father-in-Law who's in his late 50's loved the book. 


I had found this Meme on Facebook a while ago and absolutely loved it!

Finding Bigfoot is my favorite Comedy on the channel, but I really enjoy it when they show programs about real animals. I miss Steve Irwin and Jeff Corwin.
