    From the author of the New York Times bestselling Jedi Academy books comes book two in the laugh-out-loud graphic novel series about Neanderthal siblings Lucy and Andy. Fans of the Big Nate, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, and Terrible Two series won't want to miss it! Now available in paperback!

    Every day is a snow day for Lucy & Andy! But life in the Ice Age isn't all fun and games. These Neanderthal siblings are back to their paleo pranks, and they have to put up with more than just each other—the cave is feeling awfully cramped since the humans moved in. It's the Ice Age, and legroom comes at a real premium!

    Jeffrey Brown skillfully blends humor and history with paleontologist sections: Timeline of Key Discoveries, Ice Age Fact vs. Fiction, Silly Cavemen Myths, and more.

    "Lucy & Andy are Stone Age rock stars! I loved this book!" —Lincoln Peirce, author of the Big Nate series

    "A fast, funny read." —Kirkus Reviews

    Neanderthal siblings return for a blustery infoventure in the Ice Age.Lucy and Andy meet and welcome into their cave an extended, racially diverse family of humans. Andy is less than enthusiastic about the arrangement, but Lucy is glad to have Sasha, a little black girl, and the others to pal around with. Between hunts for food, the adults search for a nearby cave for the humans to move into. The kids play in the snow, do chores, visit a glacier, and visit the Neanderthal family's summer cave at the beach. Can the families outsmart cave bear Big Bob and appropriate his cave for the humans, or will they live together forever? Modern-day fictional commentators Pam (a white woman) and Eric (a black man) return as well to explain (usually with jokes) and expand on the actual science and discoveries behind the events in Lucy and Andy's comic-strip adventures. Science-y tidbits dot the narrative panels (usually followed by sarcastic one-liners), and the whole is followed by a museum list, a Q-and-A, and myth-busters about cavemen, all conveyed in a light tone. No further reading or works cited make this problematic as an informational source, but for the paleontologically inclined, it's a fast, funny read with likable kid characters. Captivated kids will be happy to see that Book 3 is on its way. (Graphic historical fiction. 9-12)
