With the same jouncy and joyous rhythms of her youngest picture book texts, Lisa Wheeler introduces readers to one of the most awesome beasts to ever walk the earth: the massive, hairy--legendary--wonderful woolly mammoth! This factually based book includes an author's note.

K-Gr. 2. This handsome picture book features a poem about woolly mammoth migration and suitably large-scale illustrations on a series of wide, double-page spreads. The text describes a group of female mammoths and their young traveling south for the winter, reaching their destination only to turn around and begin their long trek back. Wheeler uses wordplay skillfully, her verse shows originality, and her introductory author's note indicates her familiarity with "the latest scientific research." However, her tendency to slip into a jocular tone makes the book an uneasy combination of fact, conjecture, and imagination. A line such as "Their menu had to be improved, / so mammoths packed their trunks and moved" may be clever, but it casts doubt on whether the book really belongs in the 500s. In any case, the beautifully composed scratchboard illustrations offer strong line work, subtle use of color, and a fine sense of what migrating mammoths may have looked like all those millennia ago. Carolyn Phelan, PreSchool-Grade 2Buoyant language and vivid artwork depict the excitement of the migration of Massive, hairy,/legendary woolly mammoths. The words flow smoothly, providing interesting bits of information about the animals within the rhymed framework: Come colder days, those mammoth herds/migrated south, just like the birds. Occasional humorous phrases (so mammoths packed their trunks and moved) add a lighthearted touch without detracting from the progression of the journey. Short refrains (Big and bulky,/huge and hulky,/wide and woolly mammoths!) break up the rhythm neatly and are especially lively when read aloud. Scratchboard-and-watercolor illustrations capture the creatures' majesty and the beautiful landscape of their trek. Thick black lines and stark whites are balanced by the luminous colors of sky, water, and snow. The composition of the spreads is varied to strong effect. A dramatic scene shows two grown males clashing, for example, while a page turn reveals a much less imposing pair of calves play fighting. Other visual highlights depict the prehistoric beasts swimming with snorkel-trunks up high, plodding past the bones of less-fortunate travelers, and finally emerging into green fields as They reached the south by winter's end.../then started heading north again! This successful mixture of rhyme, facts, and illustration, applied to a fascinating subject, will make this picture book a popular choice.Steven Engelfried, Beaverton City Library, OR, *"Young audiences will be riveted by this compelling introduction, and rightly tempted to echo the awed refrain: 'Big and bulky, / huge and hulky, / wide and woolly mammoths!'", *"Young audiences will be riveted by this compelling introduction, and rightly tempted to echo the awed refrain: ''Big and bulky, / huge and hulky, / wide and woolly mammoths!''"
