The Ice Monster

by David Walliams

Elsie, a bold and curious orphan in Victorian London, is fascinated when she hears of a frozen woolly mammoth discovered at the North Pole—dubbed the Ice Monster. But this is no ordinary news story. When fate brings Elsie face to face with the creature, she’s swept into an epic adventure that takes her from the streets of London to the icy Arctic, on a daring mission filled with danger, friendship, and wonder.
