Unsolved Mysteries from around the World
Norwegian title: Uløste mysterier fra hele verden
In Unsolved Mysteries from Around the World readers will find out about all kinds of sinister and unexplained happenings from every corner of the world – and get a chance to dig around in all the clues and evidence.
Who was Jack the Ripper, the murderer who killed several women on the streets of London in 1888? What happened to the Sodder children who vanished without a trace after a fire in West Virginia on Christmas Eve in 1945? And is Himeji Castle in Japan really haunted?
Unsolved Mysteries from Around the World is a collection of 33 mysterious, unsolved spooky stories that are guaranteed to raise the hairs on the back of readers’ necks – young and old alike! Illustrator Jannicke Hansen has filled the book with mysterious, eerie, spooky drawings that will absorb and fascinate young readers.
