Book Synopsis

Come face-to-face with the most amazing prehistoric beasts in this stunning gift book, illustrated by the Kate Greenaway Medal-winner Grahame Baker-Smith.
Are you brave enough to meet the incredible giants that shared the Stone Age world with our ancestors? From the woolly mammoth to the fearsome sabre-toothed cat, and from the giant eagle swooping in the skies to the six-metre snake slithering along the forest floor, this is an awesome introduction to prehistory’s biggest beasts. Featuring eighteen animals from all over the world, illustrated with flair by Kate Greenaway Medal-winning illustrator Grahame Baker-Smith, and packed with jaw-dropping facts, this is an atmospheric and absorbing journey through the Stone Age world.

Our Review Panel says...

An excellent non-fiction book to accompany a Stone Age topic, with text that concentrates on 18 prehistoric animals.

The stunning illustrations from Grahame Baker Smith are the focal point of each double-page spread, accompanying a wealth of information about each. The information on each page is plentiful, offering an insight into Stone Age animals, their diet, behaviours and appearance, plus a handy comparison to modern-day animals. A fact box is also included on every page with details of scientific names, weight, extinction date and the location the animals lived in.

A must-have book for a Stone Age topic that would appeal to many young readers.
