Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
It is the widest, largest river on planet Earth, surrounded by deep rainforest and home to an incredible array of wildlife. Welcome to the Amazon.
Take a journey through South America along the winding Amazon River, spotting tree frogs, piranhas, snakes and tropical insects along the way. Where does the river begin, and where does it end? Which animals dwell in its murky waters and how much life does it sustain in the habitats all along its banks? Through gorgeous, detailed illustrations, the mysteries of the Amazon are revealed.
Includes glossary.
From source to sea - Wildlife of the riverbank - People of the rainforest - Life on the river.
"Beginning with a tiny trickle high in the mountains, smaller streams join until they form the world's largest river. Crossing a continent, it winds through lush rainforest until it meets the ocean. From snapping piranha fish to the giant anaconda, this mighty waterway is home to planet Earth's most incredible ecosystem"--Back cover.
