Join curious Ug on his quest for a pair of soft trousers in this funny and touching stone-age story from creator of The Snowman, Raymond Briggs.
Ug and his parents live in the Stone Age. And that means stone blankets, stone-cold food, an even colder cave and, worst of all, hard stone trousers!
Being an inquisitive and intelligent child, Ug suggests a series of modifications to improve the quality of family life. His ideas about heating, cooking, boats, and balls that actually bounce are initially met with a hostile reaction.
But with the help of his father, who slowly comes around to his son's way of thinking, Ug comes tantalisingly close to his ultimate soft-trousered goal.
This heartwarming and hilarious tale, told in a graphic novel, comic strip format, is the perfect gift for a curious child learning to understand the world around them.
