The Curious Case of the Missing Mammoth Book Cover

The Curious Case of the Missing Mammoth by Ellie Hattie


Review: This was one of my son’s favorite picture books. We were fortunate enough to purchase it when it first came out and were able to grab the soft plush mammoth that came along with it. The illustrations in this book are just breathtaking and my son enjoyed opening each of the flaps to reveal new information. I was particularly pleased to find no mention of ‘billions of years’ on the dinosaur page, so this is safe for any young earth creationists with little dinosaur or science lovers! Highly recommend!
