I read a book as a child about these kids that find this guy at the zoo who talks about this mystical almost-extinct animal who was hidden inside a secret place which could only be accessed through meditation.

The book follows them as they learn how to access the place and go through treacherously and try to beat the mystical creature’s henchmen and find it. Once they find it the scientist who helped the children helps the creature create a female version so it can save itself from going extinct.

I’m trying to find what it’s called but it’s called “the BLANK” where BLANK is the name that they call this creature in the book

  • Hi, welcome to the site. In roughly which year did you read this, and when do you think it might've been published? Also, do you recall anything about the cover? Commented Nov 25, 2022 at 7:25
  • Perhaps "Death Dreams", the second in Graham Masterton's Dream Warrior series? This novel's monster is a Shadow Creature, a prehistoric predator which can hide inside its prey's imagination Commented Nov 25, 2022 at 15:54
  • This is very familiar to me, but I can't remember the name. I don't think it was part of a series. I would have read it in the early 90s or late 80s in Canada. Commented Nov 25, 2022 at 16:58
