Trouble is brewing in the tribe. The people are divided. Some want to go to war against the wanderers who travel to their valley every year to hunt mammoths, but others see that the wanderers are dying out and need help. Geb and Tannash, the son and daughter of the tribal leader, along with their strange friend, Scrim, are caught in the middle as the tribe splits apart and turns on itself. Can they - should they - help defend the wanderers? *The BigShorts books are short, stand-alone novels for strong Key Stage 2 readers. Each novel is around 100 pages long.
