Boy of the Painted Cave (Boy of the Painted Cave) by Justin F DenzelThank you! Based on research at Altamira and other southern European cave communities, the story of Tao, a year-old artist. Born to a woman stolen from another tribe and a father whose identity he does not know, Tao is almost an outcast: saved from death by exposure after his mother's death, he has been raised by old Kala. A quiet rebel, Tao persists in two tabooed actions: he tames a wolf-dog Ram and draws whenever he gets the chance. With Ram's assistance, he becomes one of his tribe's most successful hunters; and, eventually, old Greybeard who is responsible for the ritual painting of animals before a hunt discovers Tao's talent, secretly teaches him, and nominates him as his successor. Tao is an outcast. Unlike the great hunters of his clan, Tao does not want to kill the wild bears or woolly mammoths of the hunt.
Instead he wants only to paint them. But only Chosen Ones can be cave painters. What's more, Volt, the clan leader, violently despises Tao. And when the other clan members discover Tao's secret talent, they cast him out into the wilderness alone. There, he befriends a wild wolf dog named Ram, and the mysterious Graybeard, who teaches him the true secret of the hunt.Buy Boy Of The Painted Cave by Justin F.
