Hello everyone,

I am trying to hunt down a book from my youth called "The Creatures Catalogue" (I believe). It was a great book with details and illustrations of monsters from myth and movie. The book was mostly orange,(at least the edition I always saw was) with monster illustrations on the cover. I know my sister was taking it out from her school library right up until the mid-90's but I have no idea when it was last published.

Anyway, I am starting to feel a bit crazy because I can't get a scent of it's existence from searches on the web or phone calls to every bookstore in town. I know the book existed and I am all but sure I have the title right. It doesn't help that DandD games have published about a zillion of their own "Creatures Catalogues" which always pop up in my searches and phone calls.

Long story short, I was wondering if anyone on this forum might know of the book I refer to, seeing as it was a good book to spark the imagination and draw from.

Thanks in advance for any info.

I did a quick search for you on dogbert here:

http://dogbert.abebooks.com/servlet/SearchResults?y=13&kn=creatures%2C+catalog&x=13

check out these pages- it might be here. And also check on whether it's "catalog" or "catalogue".

Good luck.

Got her tracked down after a little searching using "catalog." Can you believe it...never even occurred to me...silly.

Anyway, thank you very much Dave I am happy to have found it finally.
