We went to find a woolly mammoth ... and it was NOWHERE to be found.It wasn't chilling on the snow-covered lands. Or swimming in the icy river. And it DEFINITELY wasn't hiding in the frozen forest. Everywhere we looked, we found strange creatures instead. There was a hairy scary woolly rhino rolling around in some grass (weird ... we thought it always snowed in the Ice Age). A spotty dotty sabre-tooth cat that was ready for a fight (RUN!) And a spiky feisty giant armadillo (but I crept right past him - armadillos are pretty blind you know ...). But absolutely NO mammoths.Where could such a HUGE great MAMMOOSIVE creature be hiding?Meet some of the incredible and unbelievably large creatures from the Ice Age in this laugh-out-loud picture book story that features hilarious, fascinating and slightly bizarre facts throughout. Perfect for fans of We're Going on a Bear Hunt.

A super huge stegosaurus that was having an afternoon snooze. And a scary spinosaurus that we had to swim past VERY carefully as it ate a pile of fish for lunch. But absolutely NO sign of a T. rex.Where could such a HUGE great dinosaur be hiding?Meet some of the incredible and unbelievably large dinosaurs in this laugh-out-loud picture book story that features hilarious, fascinating and slightly bizarre facts throughout.
