In this lighthearted twist on a school story, two underdog heroes, a woolly mammoth and a fox, at an elite Ice Age academy join forces to thwart comically primitive humans who have been secretly stealing the animals' food and planning a hunt. Effectively scribbly art supplements and sometimes replaces the main text, further pulling readers into this humorous tale.
