Picture This: The Caveman Next Door


The Caveman Next Door is a fun story about fitting in and embracing your differences.

Penny's new neighbour is a caveman. He's a bit confused about how life works in Penny's street, so Penny takes him on a tour of her town to help him learn how to fit in. After a disastrous trip to the library and a mishap at the park, Penny decides it might be safer to take Ogg the caveman to school for show and tell. Ogg struggles to follow the rules at school, but his knowledge of the natural world makes him a surprising hit with Penny's headteacher, with unexpected results.

We really enjoyed reading this story. It's unusual premise meant there was lots of humour and it was a lot of fun to read aloud. My two-year-old really enjoyed following Ogg's adventures and we loved the bright, colourful artwork. There's so much to look at on every page.

Thank you so much New Frontier Publishing for sending me a copy to review!
