Neandertals: A Prehistoric Puzzle

by Yvette LaPierre

When the first Neanderthal skeleton was discovered nearly 150 years ago, scientists presented the race as barely developed brutes. But recent findings indicate that Neanderthals made complex tools, organized group hunts, cared for their sick and injured,and buried their dead.

I really liked this book. This book really informed me a lot about neanderthals. For example I did not know that neanderthals had such a short life, but they did. This is an excellent book for teaching about the life of a neanderthal because it goes into detail. It tells how they hunted how they lived and how they communicated. That's good stuff to know.
