The Stone Age father and son of Cave Dada (2020) are back, and this time Dada must produce an egg for his child's breakfast. Or else. Unfortunately, once the heavy rectangular stone door is pulled aside (with great difficulty) by Dada, the ancient fridge shelves reveal no egg. And soon enough, a clumsy mammoth puts paid to the fridge door, the biggest piece coming to rest across the stones surrounding the fire (discovered in the previous book). Dada attempts to entice the tot to eat something else: cheese? "No! Has holes!" Onion? "Too stink!" Spinach? "It touch onion!" With each pronouncement, Baba tosses the foods away from his stone highchair, and they land atop the demolished door. Dada points to each item on the fridge shelves, to no avail. Although "Dad no want hunt gather. Dada day off...Dada want relax," his tot's temper tantrum forces him out to raid the nest of what appears to be a ginormous chicken. Just when breakfast is in his grasp...oops! The omelet has been invented. Reese's illustrations are just as hilarious as in the duo's first outing, combining single- and double-page spreads with comic panels to trace the emotional roller coaster that parenting sometimes is, though one might wish that the father were portrayed in a less stereotypical light next time. Facial expressions are masterful; both have light skin and wear furs, the tyke as a diaper. Wonder what these two will "invent" next?
