Here There Be Monsters: The Legendary Kraken and the Giant Squid by H.P. Newquist

Newquist, HP Here There Be Monsters: The Legendary Kraken and the Giant Squid.  Houghton Mifflin, 2010.  $18.00.  NON-FICTION.  While the cover might lead you to believe that this is a cute picture book, inside, instead, is a wealth of information about the past myths and then present evidence of the existence of giant creatures in the ocean depths.  Lots of great science – a just the right level for an older reader.
