There are lots of stories about fantasy animals. Sometimes the animals were strong and killed
sometimes they were signs of good luck. Here is some information about six famous fantasy animals. Unicorns
were beautiful creatures like horses. They had a long pointed horn in the middle of their foreheads. The horn
was magical. If a unicorn put its horn in dirty water, the water became clean. Unicorns were a sign of good luck,
but only honest people could see them.
Centaurs were wild creatures. They were half-man, half-horse. They lived a long time ago in
Greece. Most centaurs were soldiers but one centaur was different. His name was Chiron. He was
a famous teacher. When he died he changed into a star called Sagittarius.
The Minotaur was a very scary creature for people. It had a bull's head and a man's body. It lived in a labyrinth on
an island called Crete. If anybody went into the labyrinth, they got lost and
could never get out again. Every year, people from the island of Minos sent 7 boys and girls into the labyrinth.
The Minotaur ate them.
One year, a brave man called Theseus killed the Minotaur. He took a ball of string from a princess and used it to
go in and out of the labyrinth.
Chinese dragons were good, friendly and intelligent. They were made from the parts of nine animals: a snake's
body, a fish's scales, a clam's stomach, a tiger's feet, an eagle's claws, a camel's face, a deer's antlers, a cow's ears
and golden eyes.
