Discovery in the Cave
(Adobe EPUB eBook, Kindle Book, OverDrive Read)
This amazing true adventure story about the discovery of the Lascaux Cave will have young readers feeling that they've discovered something pretty special, too!
In 1940, four teenage boys and a dog dropped themselves into a hole in the forest floor. Using a flaming grease gun as a torch, they ventured deep underground, eventually coming to a huge cave, the walls of which were covered with life-size paintings of animals. Whole herds of horses! Deer with horns as big as tree branches! Giant bison! The boys were amazed by their discovery. They'd stumbled upon the world's finest examples of prehistoric painting!
Perfect for classroom use, this Step 4 Step into Reading book is realistically illustrated by award-winning artist Bryn Barnard.

July 1, 2010
In 1940, a group of boys found the now-famous prehistoric cave drawings at Lascaux, France. This volume introduces readers to the cave's history. Dubowski imagines events at the discovery in addition to speculating about the original artist at work. The illustrations' muted, earthy tones are well paired with the story's action, though the events can be hard to follow(Copyright 2010 by The Horn Book, Incorporated, Boston. All rights reserved.)
