Travel 20,000 years back in time to visit the Stone Age for a day, with Auri, a young cave-dweller, as your friendly guide.

With brilliant illustrations by Russell Punter, edited by Ruth Brocklehurst with the help of experimental archeologist Dr James Dilly, this is a beautifully presented and informative guide to all things Stone Age.
