Adventures in the Amazon Rainforest
Join the suspenseful adventures and misadventures of Mike, a child, whose missionary parents raised him among the Yanomamö people of Venezuela. In a culture that is so different from our own, Mike learns the ways of the rainforest and the people he came to love and understand. From encounters with man-eating piranhas, to little understood tribal beliefs, Mike entertains and enlightens his readers in dramatic fashion.
