Description

Nathaniel McDaniel, that mischievious, feisty hero, is back with more amazing adventures from the magic attic

While exploring the treasure trove in Gramps’ attic, Nathaniel and his feline friend Queen Tut discover a woolly mammoth skin. Before they know it—BA-ZANG—the two are transported back more than a hundred thousand years, where a woolly mammoth named Ed has been scared out of his hide by a terrifying sabre-toothed tiger. Nate must do battle with the tiger if he is to return Ed to his former woolly glory and make it home again.
