When T. A. Barron visited the Patagonian Cave of Hands and saw a footprint inside the cave, he knew there was a story there. And so he created the story of Auki, a young boy who knows he's ready to be a hunter, even though his father says he's not old enough. When Auki defies his father and sneaks out at dawn with spear in hand, he discovers something unexpected - a place he never knew existed. A place that teaches him more about his people - and himself - than a hunt ever could. This is a powerful story of courage, transformation, and imagined history.
