I also would have loved this. In the late 70s there were quite a few kid-themed paranormal books available. My favorite first monster book was a Golden Books "fun book" sold in Department stores when they had book sections. It hits similar themes to this one - a transition from movie monsters to those that may be thought of as zoological (Bigfoot). And, we also had bookmobiles that gave kids free books. I always went for the creepy stuff. https://idoubtit.wordpress.com/2019/05/20/my-three-favorite-vintage-books-on-monsters-and-the-paranormal/

While this was after my time too, it would certainly have been I checked out from the school library had I been in school at the time. I love little gems like this.
