A thrilling book for late elementary and middle-school children, centered on courage, loyalty, and persistence.

At the end, there is more information about the Amazon, deforestation, and real river pirates, including the disclosure that this was inspired by a real family's escape.

The additional factual information and links, and the variety of suggestions for how Iwe can help reduce deforestation and unethical practices, solidified the 5-star rating.
