POPSUGAR 2024 Prompt 17: set in a travel destination on my bucket list (The Amazon).
This was a scientific book written for younger readers. Very interesting information on the pink dolphins and the Amazon in general.

Not that was unsure before but the Amazon with its plethora of rats, spiders the size of fists and mosquitoes galore; is not for me.

I've had this since 1998 and I finally read it while recovering from surgery. I completely fell in love with it and I can't believe I waited more than 10 years to read it!
Montgomery's descriptions are fantastic, her love for the animals is apparent, and her tenderness and insight are wedded magically. Like Robert Payne's Among Whales, this book made me want to drop everything and go observe some animal, any animal, in its native habitat. I want to read everything she's ever written now.
