Rain Forest Explored

This book is about where the rain forest is.  First the speaker lands in Brazil and then she reads a magazine about people cutting trees down. Then she learns about  Kuhikugu, which is a village that has disappeared in the rain forest. She learns about food like maniooc, which is a soft potato.

We also learn that Amazon is hot and it is a rain forest because it rains a lot. She travels on the Rio Branco, which means white river. Piranhas are fish that are dangerous that live in the river.
