Me Want Pet!

(2) PS Illustrated by Bob Shea. Searching for a pet, Cave Boy brings home a woolly mammoth (too big), then a saber-toothed tiger (Papa has allergies), then a dodo bird (not housebroken). But the animals all help stave off a stampede, changing the minds of Mama, Papa, and Gran Cave. Shea's stylized illustrations, with their thick lines, abstracted human figures, and flat perspectives, resemble Chris Raschka's.
