Cave Girl tells the story of Ru, a brave explorer who loved animals—big ones, small ones, sneaky ones, tall ones. She could speak to any wild creature, any, that is, except one: humans. She desperately wanted to talk to the other children, but it was too scary!

So when Ru discovers a lonely hyena, she finally has a friend. But then disaster strikes, and Ru must find help. Will she be able to overcome her fear?

This is a funny, quirky, and empowering prehistoric story about finding your own voice, from exciting debut author-illustrator, Ana Duna.

About the Author

Ana Duna is a children's book illustrator based in Spain, who has also worked as a pattern designer for a fashion brand where she enjoyed playing with shapes and colour combinations. She now focuses on her main passion: children illustration. Ana studied a bachelor's degree in fine arts and later a Master's degree in illustration and graphic design. Humour has always been an essential part of both her work and life, and she loves creating interesting characters and the worlds they live in; most of her inspiration comes from the observation of little things in everyday life and also from good art and movies.
