School Library Journal - 09/01/2015 K-Gr 2—This second installment about Orq is rich in humor. The young caveboy and his trusty mammoth Woma have fun every day, despite the hardships of cave life. Perhaps their biggest challenge of all is dealing with bullies Dorq and Caba. Dorq is everything Orq is not—big, hairy, and strong. He's also greedy and mean. Orq and Woma are fast, but not always fast enough to escape their tormentors. One day, in anger and frustration, Orq pretends: "This rock Dorq. This rock Caba." As he bangs them together repeatedly, he accidentally creates fire in the process. He has the last laugh and wins the day. "Orq everybody's hero. Warm cave. Night light. Bison burgers! Yum!" VERDICT Recommended for all collections, especially libraries where This Orq: (He Cave Boy) (2014) has a particular fan base.—Ashley Prior, Lincoln Public Library, RI - Copyright 2015 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
