From the bestselling author of Horrible Histories, named 'the outstanding children's non-fiction author of the 20th century' by Books For Keeps _______________ A fast-paced Stone Age adventure ideal for readers aged 7+ 17,300 years ago. Lascaux, France. Willow isn't the strongest or fastest in his tribe, he is careful and clever. But that's not what matters to the other boys. All they care about who is the best hunter, and who can provide meat for the tribe. So when the brawny and brash Bull takes over as the tribe's chief, it's going to take all of Willow's wits to survive. An exciting tale based on real historical and archaeological evidence, this story is full of Terry Deary's imaginative style and dry wit. With helpful reading notes to extend learning, this book is the perfect springboard for further study of the Stone Age under the Key Stage 2 National Curriculum. Book band: Brown _______________ 'Bubbling with wit, language play and robust dialogue....just the right mix of ingredients to trigger young readers' interest in all things historical' - Books For Keeps

I would recommend it but I didn't like it

Repetitive but good

Bit of a funny ending

It was a good book. I liked how it teaches you about the ancient pictures on the cave walls. The best bit was the game at the end for me and my friends. I would recommend this book because it teaches you that pictures were drawn on the caves to brag luck

It is a fiction book based on facts. I like the character willow as he carries on even though he is hated by most people in his tribe. I would recommend this book to younger readers.
