ook and gluk kung fu cavemen from the future

Ook and Gluk: Prehistoric Paramedics from the Future. So before I folded it up and put it in my pocket, I quickly scribbled the words 'from the Future' at the end of the title. I liked the sketch very much, but not the title. At the top of the sketch, I wrote the words 'Ook and Gluk: Prehistoric Paramedics'. Later that day, I drew a sketch of these guys and their ancient ambulance. The other had a big afro, mutton chops, and a handlebar moustache.

One caveman had stringy yellow hair hanging in his eyes, a goatee, and a missing front tooth. It was just a mental picture of two cavemen driving an ambulance through the jungle, on their way to the dinosaur hospital. The first time I heard this story, I got an image in my head. Most of the kids weren't sure if the tale was true or not (after all, they were only five years old), but they all had to admit: it was a good story. The lies went on and on, getting sillier and wilder, until finally the boy passed the toy ambulance around so everyone could go home and tell their families that they had actually touched a pre-historic caveman ambulance that day. 'This ambulance,' the boy told his fellow kindergartners, 'is a pre-historic ambulance that is millions and millions of years old.' The boy proceeded to tell his classmates about the ancient cavemen who used to use that particular ambulance when they drove through the jungle taking sick dinosaurs to the hospital. Then, when he reached the front of the classroom, he did something amazing. How can you top an ancient, rare dinosaur tooth with a common, everyday 'Hot-Wheels' car? As he walked to front of the classroom clutching the unimpressive toy in his hand, I can only imagine the panic he must have felt.

This kid didn't have anything cool to show the classroom and he knew it.

This was bad news for the next kid in line for show-and-tell that day. He even knew where the tooth had been dug up, and how much it was worth.Īt the end of his presentation, he passed the tooth around so that all the children could go home and tell their families that they had actually touched a genuine dinosaur tooth that day. He knew how old the tooth was, and what kind of dinosaur it had come from. The boy stood in front of the classroom told everyone all about the tooth. One day in a California kindergarten classroom, a little boy brought a REAL dinosaur tooth in for show and tell. 'This book was partly inspired by a true story I once heard.
