Life in the Great Ice Age by Michael and Beverly Oard illustrated by Earl and Bonita Snellenberger*

Through a story about a imagined family living during the Ice Age, readers learn how individuals during this time survived the harsh world.
Readers will realize how many misconceived ideas they may have about this time period as they read this story.
Part II contains scientific information about the Ice Age.
This book is from a Christian perspective.
Although this book contains illustrations and is a rather short story, the sentence structure and format is more accessible for older elementary/junior high.  There are also many words on the page and the set up and print size make it appear like a text book.
My ten year old read this book to himself as part of his homeschool history curriculum.
*Highly recommend.
