(4) K-3 Not content to curl up in the cave with his parents, Boy goes looking for "warm" on his own. After being chased away by a saber-toothed tiger, woolly mammoth, and dinosaur, he realizes home is best. Though the dinosaur would have died out long before the other characters came into existence, the comforting story and swirling, delicately lined art are a pleasing mix.
