5.0 out of 5 stars
Looking with new eyes,
By Kae Robb (Phoenix, Arizona) - See all my reviews
This review is from: El Gran Capoquero: Un Cuento de la Selva Amazonica (The Great Kapok Tree: A Tale of the Amazon Rain Forest) (Paperback)
A woodman begins to chop down a huge tree in the Amazon jungle but, the wood is very hard. The heat of the day and the lull of the insects put him to sleep. In his dreams he is visited by the animals, a child, and insects of the forest who explain their interdependency and the importance of the Amazon. They ask him to look at them with new eyes, with new understanding. When he awakens from his dream, he picks up his axe to resume his labor, looks at the animals and a child, pauses, puts down his axe, and leaves. Beautifully told. Wonderful illustrations.
5.0 out of 5 stars
A very impressive tree,
This review is from: El Gran Capoquero: Un Cuento de la Selva Amazonica (The Great Kapok Tree: A Tale of the Amazon Rain Forest) (Paperback)
I recently made a trip to the Amazon rain forest off Iquitos. The Kapok tree is very present by itself and through its products. This brief book acquaints you with this important actor of the Amazon.
Recientemente visité la selva Amazónica a partir de Iquitos. El Capoquero está muy presente tanto físicamente como a través de sus productos. Este pequeño libro introduce al viajero a este importante actor del Amazonas. |
