Yanomami

By David M. Schwartz

Book Overview

"The Yanomami, hunters and gatherers living in the depths of the Amazon rain forest, are one of many groups threatened by the invasion of foreigners. Through magnificent full-color photographs and an eloquent text, this book shows their way of life from points of view of Matuwe, a 10-year-old boy, and Hiyomi, a 6-year-old girl....Photo essays such as this may result in younger generations' awareness of the plight of these vanishing people."--School Library Journal.
