If you imagined that all Stone Age people lived in caves, were not
very clever, not very clean and said "Ugg" a lot, then think again.
Marking the start of all human history, the Stone Age lasted around
3.5 million years (the last part of that was only 71 grand parents
ago!). Delve into that incredible time with this book packed full
of amazing facts, information, crafts, storytelling and myth
debunking to find out what it was really like to live as a hunter
gatherer. Dotted through the book are step-by-step craft activities
and recipes that give you first-hand experience of some vital Stone
Age skills making a Mesolithic shelter, fat lamps, a digging stick,
creating cave art, making a bow and arrow and a fishing hook are
just a few. AGES: 5 to 11 AUTHOR: Naomi Walmsley runs
Outback2Basics with her partner Dan Westall from their patch of
woodland in Shropshire, UK. Specialising in bushcraft and Stone Age
skills, they provide unique experiences for school children and
teachers to connect to nature. Naomi is a qualified bushcraft
instructor and Forest School Leader and believes that every child
should be able to safely light a fire and have at least ten uses
for a stick by the age of ten. She has also written for many
magazines, including Bushcraft & Survival Skills, LivingWoods
and Juno. So passionate are they about the Stone Age way of life,
they have actually lived and breathed it for themselves. Naomi and
Dan undertook a five-month Stone Age immersion experience in the US
in 2010, living in the wilderness without any modern equipment,
profoundly influencing their lives and teaching. Recently (Sept
2020),they appeared in Channel 4's fascinating documentary
Surviving the Stone Age. A three-part series filmed in Bulgaria
with six other Stone-Age experts living as a tribe of hunter
gatherers for one month. Naomi has co-authored two previous books
for GMC Publications; Forest School Adventure and Urban Forest
School. 50 photographs, 200 illustrations
