Description
Continuing the Read & Bloom line for newly independent readers comes a hilarious, boy-friendly series . . . Meet Caveboy! Ooga booga! Caveboy is just like any other boy . . . he loves playing base-skull, running really fast, and especially whacking things with his club. But when his club breaks, he will need to find a new one . . . which just might lead him to a new friend. In this first book, Caveboy will find the perfect club, meet his best friend, and learn to be brave!

ReviewsSingle-minded and single-eyebrowed, Caveboy is a mischievous, relatable hero . . . Wight's full-color cartoons have a scruffy charm and readily draw out the humor woven into each chapter. * Publishers Weekly * The easy language and short chapters may prompt outbursts of 'ooga booga' from newly independent readers. * Booklist * A great first step away from early readers for those approaching chapters . . . Will likely please little cavepersons. * Kirkus Reviews * With short chapters, appealing illustrations, and simple story lines, this series is just right for brand-new readers. * School Library Journal * Read & Bloom will be wildly popular. And I am very happy to see some new friendship books come along with the end of the Elephant and Piggie books. * Teri Lesesne, Professor of Library Science at Sam Houston State University * Funny and appealing, the Read & Bloom books will charm readers. * Linda M. Pavonetti, Ed.D., professor of Reading and Language Arts at Oakland University *
