I have previously blogged about mermaids, rubber ducks, and wetlands, so it took me a little while to come up with a good spin for this week’s water freebie theme.
Large bodies of water like lakes and the ocean can be beautiful on a calm summer day.
They‘re treacherous during a hurricane or other violent storm.
They can be a safe place to swim, boat, or play.
They’re often a good food source.
What else can they be? Well, depending on what sort of books you read, they might also contain sea monsters. Here are ten titles about that exact scenario.
1. Jaws (Jaws, #1) by Peter Benchley
2. Black Water Horror: A Tale of Terror for the 21st Century : Creature from the Black Lagoon
by Larry Mike Garmon
3. Slime by John Halkin
4. How to Survive a Sharknado and Other Unnatural Disasters: Fight Back When Monsters and Mother Nature Attack by Andrew Shaffer
5. Goliath by Steve Alten
6. Creature from the Black Lagoon by Vargo Statten
7. Zomby Dick or, The Undead Whale by J.D. Livingstone
8. The Origin of the Crabs by Guy N. Smith
9. Orca by Arthur Herzog III
