Ab’s mother, identified as a leader among the cave people, arrives just in time to rescue him from a potential threat, exemplifying the dangers of their time. As Ab grows, we learn about his family's structure, adventures with his new friend Oak, and the various lessons he learns about survival in a world filled with both ferocious wild beasts and the daily responsibilities of cave life.
