Publisher's Synopsis
Step into the real lost world of Beringia and wander its icy tundra to meet long-extinct giants as they come to life again!
Long ago, when the Earth was very cold, Asia and North America were connected by a frozen land bridge. This bridge was called Beringia and was home to giant animals-from the scimitar cat to the short-faced bear, and more. Watch for the lumbering woolly mammoth, one of the biggest mammals living in Beringia. See the sleeping giant ground sloth, which can be as big as an elephant. In the waters, you might even spy the powerful giant beaver, whose front teeth are as big as bananas! What other animals once lived in Beringia? And where did they and the land bridge go?
Filled with colorful illustrations and interesting facts, Where Giants Roamed makes history come alive as you travel back to a time when these amazing creatures walked the planet. Also included is a map of Beringia plus a glossary of terms from the book.
