- Book Synopsis
- Winner of the Queen's Knickers Award and the Scottish Book Trust Picture Book Prize, this hilarious picture book about cavemen celebrates the value of the simpler things in life. "A caveman caper that sees the titular Stone Agers competing to acquire possessions … until disaster strikes. The blissful wit of Roberts's illustrations combines to strong effect with Chisholm's restrained text." Guardian Inch and Grub are cavemen. Grub's cave is bigger, and he says that makes him the best. So Inch adds a water feature to his cave. But Grub has made fire! So Inch makes a chair. And a house. And a CAR. Grub, meanwhile, has made a castle and a train and a radio! And so the contest spirals and spirals … until they each have a HUGE wobbling pile of STUFF. But what happens when the piles collapse?
