Cave Paintings by Jairo Buitrago and Rafael Yockteng - NO

Cave Paintings
by Jairo Buitrago and Rafael Yockteng.
PICTURE BOOK Groundwood Books (House of Anansi Press), 2020. $20. 9781773061726 

BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - NOT RECOMMENDED 

A boy travels from his planet to visit his grandmother on Earth for the holidays. She takes him to see ancient cave drawings, and sends him home with a gift to remember his trip.

 A colored pencil drawing of a naked woman (his grandmother maybe) just made this already odd book even stranger, and inappropriate for a picture book audience.
