Summary

A funny graphic-novel series by New York Times bestselling author Aaron Reynolds!

His grandpa invented fire。 His dad invented the wheel。 How will Caveboy Dave leave his mark?

Dave Unga-Bunga has always been more scrawny than brawny。 This is a major problem when your village expects you to become a meat-bringer。 At age twelve, all young cave-people must stalk through the eerie mushroom forests for a prehistoric beast the village can feast on。 Dave would much rather invent stuff for a better life, though—like underwear to make loincloths less itchy and cutlery to make eating less filthy。 Can Dave save his group by inventing the perfect defense against a bloodthirsty pokeyhorn? Or will he MEET HIS DOOM?  

First in a new series, More Scrawny Than Brawny delivers irresistible characters, big thrills, and even bigger laughs。

My son enjoyed this book, but I found it a bit weird myself。 I forced myself to read it aloud because of how much I love him。

Started off a little slow for my crew, but definitely picked up and had them laughing hysterically。 Following the poo trails was of of their highlights。 🤦‍♀️ Great graphic novel for younger readers。

Funny & Humorously Clever Story。

Susan

I’ve been reading a lot of kid graphic novels because I’m currently working on my own。 This book is weak and not much fun。 Hard to imagine the kids enjoying it。

Christina

Not a fan of the fart joke middle-school humor, but at least the plot involves working together and problem solving?

Connor

cave boy dave was amazing definatly reccomended to kids, or grownups that like crude stuff。 if you like action or if you like adventure read this book (kind of weird)

Becky

Started slow, but after the kids went on the hunt。 My students will definitely enjoy this。

Canaan Martin

Great funny book about a boy who just wants to be an adventurer。

Kelly Jahng

Enjoyable and off-beat。 It was fun imagining an inventor in caveman times。 The premise was clever, and the characters entertaining。 Kids are going to enjoy the series。

Alyson

Lost a star for a bit too much butt/poo humor, but clever and compelling all the same。 See http://www。eatreadandbemommy。com/2018。。。 for details。 Lost a star for a bit too much butt/poo humor, but clever and compelling all the same。 See http://www。eatreadandbemommy。com/2018。。。 for details。 。。。more

Caveboy Dave has a good head on his shoulders。 Like his forefathers, he can create new inventions。 Sadly his own father doesn't think they quite live up to the family standard, and so he sends off his son to participate in the village's coming-of-age ceremony。 The Baby-Go-Boom requires all twelve year olds to go out and hunt one of the big six, thus proving themselves contributors to the community。 Dave though, well he's rather scrawny, and he knows he has no chance。 During the course of the hun Caveboy Dave has a good head on his shoulders。 Like his forefathers, he can create new inventions。 Sadly his own father doesn't think they quite live up to the family standard, and so he sends off his son to participate in the village's coming-of-age ceremony。 The Baby-Go-Boom requires all twelve year olds to go out and hunt one of the big six, thus proving themselves contributors to the community。 Dave though, well he's rather scrawny, and he knows he has no chance。 During the course of the hunt, he and the others, learn that what you learn in school does not equate to practical experience, and, that there is more than one way to achieve the same ends。 These lessons are woven cleanly into a very funny graphic novel。 The humour is a mixture of wit and sarcasm, and low-brow comedy, thus appealing to a fair range of people。 McAndrew's naive style also elicits quite a few laughs, and nicely fits with the setting。 Dave and friends have already proved their worth to the community, so it will be interesting to see what they do next。 。。。more

Great read。 A little underdeveloped plot-wise and very “How to train your dragon”-esque, but there are MORE than enough laugh out loud moments to keep you occupied。 The art’s pretty cute too。

There is an event coming up at work where I'll be discussing 4 books with kids ages 6+。 This is one of the 4 books。 I wasn't sure that I wanted to read it but decided to read it at work during breaks since I needed to know something about it。 It aggravates me that parents and grandparents think that graphic novels have no place in a child's hands。 I've been told that there is no substance to these types of books and that there are way too many pictures。 I agree that there are a lot of pictures。 There is an event coming up at work where I'll be discussing 4 books with kids ages 6+。 This is one of the 4 books。 I wasn't sure that I wanted to read it but decided to read it at work during breaks since I needed to know something about it。 It aggravates me that parents and grandparents think that graphic novels have no place in a child's hands。 I've been told that there is no substance to these types of books and that there are way too many pictures。 I agree that there are a lot of pictures。 "Graphic" novel says is the give away。 Let kids who want to read graphic novels read them。 Now I'll get down off my soap box。Aaron Reynolds did a great job with this book。 Dave will soon be leaving on his adventure into adulthood。 He, along with 4 other children his age, must take down and bring back some ferocious beasts for food or not come back at all。 Dave doesn't want to be a hunter。 He wants to invent。 He invents a "forf" and some underwear but nobody appreciates them so he must go hunt。 While out in the wild, he proves himself as an inventor and a great mind。 This is fun read that I would recommend for 6-10 year olds。 I found myself giggling through it。 I've seen that kids who like The Last Kids on Earth and the Hilo series would enjoy these。 I would like to add that kids who like Dav Pilkey and Jeff Kinney would also enjoy Caveboy Dave。I would definitely recommend this book to my customers。 。。。more

Ook geschikt voor vegetariërs 👍 grappig streesboek voor jongens en meiden vanaf 9 jaar。

Straight up, hilarious。 Got it from the library and I laughed so hard。 Artistic level is great, comedy is through the roof, can’t wait to see if they make more books! If you’re one for giggles and chuckles, you would be utterly insane not to check this out!

MEH。 The story's okay。 There's a few funny jokes。 But ultimately in combination with the ugly art and a slightly confusing plot, this book strives to kill one of the big six but ends up pulling a Dave。 MEH。 The story's okay。 There's a few funny jokes。 But ultimately in combination with the ugly art and a slightly confusing plot, this book strives to kill one of the big six but ends up pulling a Dave。 。。。more
