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.
