The Adventures of CAVEBOY by Sudipta Bardhan-Quallen

Posted on the 23 April 2019 by Amitagulia
The Adventures of CAVEBOY came along with a book subscription box called enchantico I enrolled in for my sons. This was probably the first novel kind of book we read together. Here goes the blurb;
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!

Now, coming to the book, the kids enjoyed reading it and we had the house full of OOGA BOOGA sounds for a few days. Books like this are a good and fun way to introduce big books to children. We read one chapter a day. I am not trying to force him to read for long duration as I want him to develop his own interest. Also, we usually read at bedtime, so the sooner the book closes, sooner we bid goodnight!
The font is big enough to keep children attracted along with colorful pictures. I read a few reviews where people had issues with gender biasing – the club of cave-girl being decorated with flowers and all. Honestly, I did not even think about it until read those reviews. My kiddo even liked the one which was covered with flowers and was worries that the flowers would be spoiled while using it.
Here is how the kiddo felt about the book:
