Front CoverDon Lessem's The Iceman is an impressive book for children. An author of many scientific books about dinosaurs, Lessem does a good job of describing and explaining the importance of Ötzi. Visually, this book is more impressive than Getz's Frozen Man. It has over 20 full-color photos or drawings; it is especially strong in illustrating the discovery of Ötzi first by the Simons and then by the government of Austria. Even though the ending is somewhat out of date, the beginning is virtually timeless and should be a valuable resource to young researchers. 32 pages.
