Tek is a cave boy in love with tech: his tablet videogames phone and TV keep him deep in his cave glued to his devices day in and day out. He never sees his friends or family anymore - and his ability to communicate has devolved to just one word: "UGH"! Can anyone in the village convince Tek to unplug and come outside into the big beautiful world?
A distinctive package and design cleverly evokes the experience of using an electronic device that eventually shuts down... and after a magic page turn Tek (and the reader) reconnects with the real world.
Patrick McDonnell is the author and illustrator of Tek: The Modern Cave Boy Thank You and Good Night A Perfectly Messed-Up Story The Monsters' Monster and Me...Jane a Caldecott Honor Book. He is also the creator of the internationally syndicated comic strip Mutts which inspired his picture books The Gift of Nothing Hug Time and others. He lives in New Jersey.
