Lug, Dawn of the Ice Age

Join Lug, a misfit caveboy who loves painting instead of hunting, on an exciting adventure in this hilarious middle-grade novel. Lug's clan belittles him with the nickname "Little Slug," but when he fails to catch a jungle llama and is banished, he discovers newfound friends in Stony and Echo. Together, they face the challenges of the approaching Ice Age and the threat of saber-toothed tigers while trying to unite warring clans. With funny anachronistic humor, charming characters, and a strong theme, Lug, Dawn of the Ice Age is perfect for readers who love Ice Age, Happy Feet, The Time Warp Trio, and Platypus Police Squad.
