HIT: Early Human Books

[Linda Elliott <lelliott@WOMBAT.CUSD.CHICO.K12.CA.US>]

Below are listed the recommendations I've received for materials for Early
Humans(sorry about my sexist Early "Man" request!):

There is a series of 3 by Brennan - Shiva...  I am at home and cannot
remember the full titles.  Books are about a Cro Magnon girl.  Very
exciting adventure stories.
Fire Hunter" by Jim
Kjelgaard
"Bone From a Dry Sea", I think, author might be Dickinson, that dealt
with the evolution of sea-apes.  It was a good story and interesting to
contemplate but I think the theory of sea-apes may be a little controversial.

Shiva: An Adventure of the Ice Age, by J.H. Brennan.
        Boy of the Painted Cave, by Justin Denzel
        Spirit on the Wall, by Ann O'Neal Garcia
        The Time of the Forest, by Tom McGowen
        Seth of the Lion People, by Bonnie Pryor
        Dom and Va, by John Christopher
        The Memory String, by Chester G. Osborne.

All of these were pulled from my book  "World Historical Fiction for
Young Adults" (Highsmith, 1995).
