Told in a light hearted, tongue-in-cheek manner and with comic-book style illustrations, the facts and information are easy to absorb.
With a helpful glossary and index at the back, and colour, adventure and discovery on every page, there could be no better introduction to life in the Stone Age.
One of the best resources I have found written for this time period. It is written in an incredibly engaging way and is both entreating and informative.
