Young Reed: Ice Ages

Young Reed: Ice Ages
by Russ Ferrett

Imagine the earth—temperatures below freezing and covered completely in ice. Our last ice age may have ended around 12,000 years ago but it wasn’t the only one. The earth has had many ice ages, constantly changing from hot to cold and back again. But what causes this to happen – and most importantly, are we due for another one?

Russ Ferrett, author of Builders of the Past and When the Earth Moves: Earthquakes & Volcanoes, takes us on an icy journey through what really happened in the ice ages. Where does snow and ice come from? How do glaciers form, grow and move? And what happens when an ice age ends and everything begins to melt? This is a large format picture book aimed at children in the 8–14 years age group. The focus is on educating children and this is the latest book in a series on the environment and the world we live in. Includes: full colour pictures, an activities and further reading section, full glossary and an index to the book.
