Mysteries of the Unexplained by Kathy Burke


Reviewed by Mark Sheehan

In this level three Penguin Reader a number of interesting topics are introduced. The book is divided into seven short chapters with a number of different activities. The topics include UFOs and other supernatural phenomenon.

The book introduces a lot of famous mysteries and gives some background information. It is written in a very factual way and it is up to the reader whether or not to believe.








The list of topics in the book is too long to write about each one, but some of my favorites were Lost Civilizations and Ancient Worlds. I particularly enjoyed reading about Stonehenge and Easter Island. It is fun to think about these past civilizations and wonder why they created such places.



The section on Ghosts was also a bit scary. It was fun to read about ghost stories from other cultures.

That's all for now. If you have a chance to read it, I highly recommend this book. It really makes you think about the world and makes you wonder what else is out there.
