Earth's Children
There is a series of novels out there written by Jean M. Auel known as 'Earth's Children'. The first in the series is entitled 'The Clan and The Cave Bear' that starts out with a five-year-old child named Ayla, who lost her parents during an earthquake. Ayla is found by a clan of cavepeople who are not like her for she is one of the 'Others'. Ayla grows up and becomes in a way one of them even though she is different she still loves the clan for the most part. The first of novels set during the prehistoric eras.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
