Savage Stone Age (Horrible Histories)
by Terry Deary
One of the benefits to being sick in bed is that no one can judge me for ploughing through some more of the HH books on my list.
I always imagine that it’s quite difficult to tell a lot about what everyday life was like for any of the early humanoids, as there was no way to write down what was happening around you. But what is also fascinating about those early humans, is how they still felt the need to show that they were there. That they existed. Whether it was the hand prints on a cave wall or the drawings of animals, people still needed to make their stamp on the world. And that’s quite beautiful really.
While I had memories reading this one as a kid, they were very faint so reading it again did feel like I was approaching it for the first time in my life which was a bit unusual. But what can you do.
