Humorous and entertaining, Jeffrey Brown’s signature comical touch enlivens the scientific and historical content, including a special paleontologist section that helps to dispel common Neanderthal myths.“Lucy & Andy are Stone Age rock stars!

We are fans of Mr. Brown from his Jedi Academy series and the superbly creative and funny Vader and Son book, so I was excited to receive an early copy of "Lucy & Andy Neanderthal". I knew our 10 y/o bookworm would love it, and she absolutely did. She especially enjoyed the entertaining tasks and troubles faced by the kids in the book and she’s always liked the author’s simple yet engaging art style.Readers need to be aware that, as in the Jedi Academy series, the style of these books is unique with hand drawn lettering and black/white sketch-type drawings. This is part of the appeal, I think, because the graphic novel style is eye-catching, yet the youngsters are still reading something with true substance that teaches interesting info.In this case, we learn about the lives and struggles of a group of adult and young Neanderthals. Mr. Brown handles this odd subject easily by making the kids and grown ups pretty much act and talk like modern day people, except they are doing Stone Age things like creating stone tools, hunting Mammoths, making clothes, fussing over cave paintings, etc. Young readers will easily relate to many of the issues Lucy, Andy and the others face.To top things off, Mr. Brown includes some interlude sections where a pair of modern day Archeologists explain what the Neanderthals are up to by teaching us real science, giving historical facts and providing dates for the events we see in the story. I thought he worked this in quite nicely so it’s not a distraction, the info is easily understood, and you barely even notice you are learning something.I recommend Lucy & Andy Neanderthal to any middle grade boy or girl who likes graphic novel style books.
