Summary

A gorgeously illustrated prehistoric fable about a curious boy and the world around him Boy woke up. It was cold in the cave. "Where's warm?" said boy. "With us," said Ma and Pa. But boy thinks he knows better. He wants a warm and cozy place to sleep, but he doesn't want to share it with anyone else. So he goes off exploring, looking for the perfect place that is all his own, but in a world full of woolly mammoths, saber-toothed tigers, and dinosaurs, how will Boy find the one place that's just right for him? This beautifully illustrated story about the joys of exploring alone, and of sharing together and enjoying the comforts of home is just right for sharing at bedtime.
