“SCARED?! Not Me! I just stopped to…scratch my foot.”

Thunder and Cluck, the hilarious prehistoric duo, return in this ready-to-read graphic novel for newly independent readers. In this sequel, the two friends challenge each other to a bravery contest when Thunder hesitates to go inside a dark cave despite the heat of the day.

Readers who enjoy Mo Willems’s Elephant and Piggy series but find it easy to read may find the Thunder and Cluck series an enjoyable next step. The vocabulary is a bit harder, but the “all in” style of humor is present consistently throughout the comic panel stories. The energetic illustrations by Miles Thompson emphasize the personalities of the pair as well as the situational humor.
