5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Educational Resource, 16 Nov 2002
As a student teacher i have found this book had a magical quality due to its beautiful illustrations best seen in its big book format. The children i used this book were captivated and inspired to learn more about the Amazon Rainforest. I used this book to introduce the children to learning about the Amazon Rainforest in a geographical context and its inspired some great geography in the classroom! If you want your child/class to be inspired to learn more about the Amazon Rainforest this book is a must have! Buy it now!
