Synopsis

Thanks to The Book, Joe, Sam, and Fred are back in the Stone Age, where there aren't any math problems. But there's a tribe of hostile cavewomen, a hungry-looking saber-toothed tiger, a bone-rattling earthquake, and a woolly mammoth who wants to turn them into toe-jam. Worst of all, Joe, Sam, and Fred have discovered that writing hasn't been invented yet—so how can The Book get them back home?

Multiple award-winning author Jon Scieszka grew up in Flint, Michigan, the second oldest and the nicest of six boys. Jon went to school at Culver Military Academy in Indiana where he was a Lieutenant; Albion College in Michigan where he studied to be a doctor; and Columbia University in New York, where he received an M.F.A. in fiction. He taught elementary school in New York for ten years in a variety of positions.

I love this whole series! Each book is a new adventure in a different time and place with a new cast of characters and is just as hilarious as the one before it!
