This work is aimed at young readers, particularly in primary education, and is intended to relay the early experiences and challenges faced by prehistoric peoples living among trees. The main character introduced, Sharptooth, is a tree-dweller who navigates the dangers of her world without the comforts of modern society, helping to instill foundational lessons about survival and resourcefulness. The opening of the narrative sets a historical context, introducing the reader to a time when humans lived without fire, tools, or permanent homes, relying solely on nature for food and shelter. Sharptooth is depicted as a resourceful and cautious individual, not only hunting and foraging for herself but also caring for her baby amidst constant threats from wild animals. As the story unfolds, it reveals the characters’ daily struggles and ingenious adaptations to their environment. It also foreshadows broader themes of community and innovation, suggesting that the early tree-dweller experiences lay the groundwork for future social structures and technological advancements.
