Fooled You
This book talks about fakes and hoaxes throughout the years. It's very kid friendly and goes through each hoax in an exploratory way. It's a quick read so kids would like it. There are illustrations that make the book fun.
It would be neat to have a group of students reading this book and Tales of the Cryptids. They could preselect a certain hoax and both read about it in different books. Next they could have a discussion about what they each found and decide what they thing-- hoax or real. A group of students might also read a few of these books and have a debate about a particular animal-- creature. Is that creature real or not?!

I read "Fooled You" as well and especially liked the chapter on the Energy Machine. It described a machine that produced energy out of basically nothing. I could really see myself using this chapter during a lesson on the law of the conservation of energy. I bet it would make it really sink in for the students-
They would be able to visualize how energy can not be created out of nothing! I was excited to discover this extra resource!
