1-3Ogg and Bob series.
Illustrated by
Mary Ann Fraser.
Doofy cavemen Ogg and Bob take a mammoth for a pet (Meet) then try to care for him as if he were a dog (Life). Throughout both books, the slapstick exploits will elicit either giggles or groans, largely depending on readers' tolerance for faux-caveman-speak ("'How catch mammoth?' asked Bob. 'Hit with rock!' said Ogg"). Review covers these Ogg and Bob titles: Life with Mammoth, and Meet Mammoth.
