Full of warmth and humour this is the first in a brilliant new young series for those just beginning to enjoy the adventure of reading alone.
Mammoths rule the world but humans may be coming a cause for concern particularly at the school Oscar has just started at. Can Oscar, his friend Mr Fox and his sister Arabella keep out of trouble or will they end up in more trouble than they can handle?
There comes a point in every young mammoth's life when it's time to grow up a bit and join the Mammoth Academy. Arabella loves school, but Oscar is finding it a little more difficult to get used to. With the help of Fox, Oscar sets out to prove that humans are in the valley and at the same time stumbles across more trouble than he'd thought.
