YETIS DON'T EXIST!
The news swirled over mountains, skipped through lakes and out to sea. Until who should hear it? Iggy the YETI and all his YETI friends. And they were a little bit surprised. So, the yetis who absolutely DO exist only had one option - to set off on a HUMAN search and help to change their minds!
The yetis trekked down steep slopes and through snowy forests when suddenly they saw gleaming streetlights up ahead. . . but found a strangely EMPTY town! The yetis searched high and low, yet the humans were NOWHERE to be seen. Surely that could only mean one thing. . .
A wonderful, wintry story with a HUGE twist and a brilliantly clever visual narrative that will have all readers laughing out loud! Perfect for fans of The Littlest Yak, The Big Freeze, The Best Bear Tracker and I Did See a Mammoth.

A delightful, fun-filled read.
What a delightful seasonal read for pre-school aged children – not specifically Christmassy (although it would make a lovely treat for under the tree!) but the wintry scenes are perfect for this time of year. Although the written story (with the rhyming sentences young children love) is quite short, each page is full of such beautiful illustrations, all of which lend themselves to opening up discussions about what else might be happening to Iggy and his Yeti friends as they embark on their perilous adventures to prove that Yetis DO exist! The fact that the illustrations are so detailed mean that each time this story is read there will always be new things to discover and, of course, being able to follow the centrefold map is something most children will enjoy....
