If you want to show them in the rule book that there is no such thing as a travel during a throw-in, simply point them to Basketball Fundamentals #2 and #5. Number 5 explicitly states it and #2 implies it because you can't travel if you don't have player control. It doesn't get any more fundamental than that.
