Join Toby the Bison in this fact-filled adventure as he explores the Ice Age Tundra and meets some of the giants that roamed its icy surface.
Ten-thousand years ago, the Earth was in the grips of what Paleontologists call the Last Glacial Period, but what you and I have come to know as the Ice Age. The inhabitants?of this frozen landscape lived in some of the coldest conditions the earth has ever experienced. But before these giants grew to their great size, they were young and, like Toby, very, very inquisitive.
Toby and the Ice Giants is a wonderfully illustrated story that delivers digestible facts about the Earth’s historic inhabitants. Share in Toby’s lively curiosity, experience the danger of the polar climes and meet some larger-than-life characters on the way.

Great non-fiction book about Toby exploring the ice age tundra and meeting some of the animal giants of the time. Has fact boxes on each double page spread about each creature. Would be useful for browsing, finding out information or reading for pleasure. Has illustrations throughout.
I think the fact part was a bit boring because of the scientific names and the sizes.
It was fiction and nonfiction.
The part where Toby made friends and enemies was fiction but when it told you facts it was nonfiction .
My favourite characters are Toby,Megatherium,Woolly Mammoth,Glyptodon,Smilodon(Sabre-toothed tigers),Short faced bear,Teratorn.
I would recommend this book to kids who like Ice Age story's and people who like facts about the Ice Age.
