The best darn book I ever read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I believe that Caitlin Maynard has done a phenomenal job of conveying what it was like to explore a tropical ecosystem for the first time as a junior highschool student, while simultaneoulsy teaching the reader all about the wild creatures and plants of Belize. It's especially amazing, given the fact that she was so young when she wrote it. My favorite part was the photo of the whole group taken just before they embarked on their journey. The kids on the trip must have had lots of fun. Many of them were probably entranced by the multitude of new species they were seeing. Especially the girl on the front cover--I bet she did not even know she was being photographed! I also enjoyed the miraculously clear underwater photos of eels--however did the photographer get those pictures?
