Not really sure I understood this book, but I'll give it my best shot. A young girl asks her father for a book. He leads her to a passage in a mountain so small that only children can venture in. Inside she finds a drawing of a bull, a stone mason's mark, a handprint, and many footprints. The experience seems to have satisfied some need in both the child and, earlier in his life, in her father.
