Description: Condition: Used - Good; Title: Victoria Amazonica: Memories from the Amazon Rainforest Cuartas, Lina and Lopera, Susana; Description: Have you ever wondered what it is really like to live in the Amazon Rainforest? How do people find food? What do children play? Where do they live? Will piranhas eat you if you fall in the river? Where do people sleep? Do children have toys in the Amazon? These are just a few of the questions that I have answered as I tell my stories about life in the Amazon. The Amazon, by day, was a feast of color, by night, it became a black canvas, dotted with light and brought alive by a soundtrack that was electrifying, always changing and hypnotic. Follow me into the Emerald Forest. Witness the lush beauty, witness deceptively simple ways of life, decipher the mystique of Victorias Amazonicas, and perhaps, learn to love the Amazon. This is a real life account of adventures I lived in the Colombian Amazon in the 90s. It includes chapters deep in the Rainforest, in the Urban Amazon and in the Brazilian communities along the mighty Amazon River. Its purpose is to weave the tales that reveal the unique character of River communities, narrate the stories that hint at the vulnerability of the habitat and its people and prompt the reflection of the value of community life and within it, the immense power of each individual.; Category: Books > Subjects > Science & Math > Nature & Ecology > Conservation; Publisher: Independently published; Author: Cuartas, Lina;
