Horrible Histories author Terry Deary presents a hilarious collection of Stone Age tales based on thrilling true stories - four books in one! Perfect for history fans (and those who don't know they're history fans yet) aged 7+.

The Great Flood Jay loves to listen to his grandfather's stories of the Great Spirit and the Earth Mother, but outside, danger is at their door. Food is getting scarcer, tribes are at war and the river water is rising...

The Great Storm On the cold and windy island of Skara Brae, Tuk and his sister Storm are hunting. But when a thief steals half their tribe's winter food stores, it's up to the siblings to solve the mystery. What if they starve? And even worse, what if it's true that their father's the thief?

The Great Monster While everyone else works, Sin-leqi reads tablets in the great temples. The tablets tell tales of the legendary Gilgamesh, tales that are so fantastical that lazy Sin-leqi doesn't have to work as long as he keeps telling them. But when the story comes to an end, Sin-leqi is in trouble...

The Great Cave Willow isn't the strongest or fastest in his tribe, but he is careful and clever. 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!
