Description:

When a curious little boy is wandering through the woods, he trips, stumbles and tumbles—right into the Stone Age, 20,000 years in the past! There he meets Om, a friendly girl about his own age who proudly introduces him to her tribe and their fascinating world. Together they shape stone tools, sew animal-skin clothes, hunt, fish, cook around crackling fires, dance at celebrations and even daub mysterious creatures on the cave walls. But when a hungry cave bear comes thundering through their camp, the little boy bolts—and wakes up back in his very own time. Was it all a dream? Renowned author-illustrator Satoshi Kitamura blends imaginative adventure with carefully researched prehistoric facts, finishing with a handy timeline, index and notes. Beautifully detailed watercolour illustrations make this a captivating introduction to early human life for curious young explorers everywhere.
