Descriptions du produit

From School Library Journal

Grade 6-9. Jacob Lansa, 14, has just barely returned from Kenya and settled down to life in Poughkeepsie, NY, when his restless father, a wildlife biologist, is called away to a field project in Brazil. In this sequel to Thunder Cave (Hyperion, 1995), Jacob again joins his father in researching and protecting an endangered species?this time it's to save the jaguar and its habitat in the Amazon rainforest. After a mysterious accident kills the expedition leader, seasoned-captain Jay Silver is hired to take the remaining researchers into the tropical interior. As Jacob; Dr. Lansa; and his girlfriend, an experienced botanist, journey up the Amazon River they witness the devastation of the land and indigenous people caused by the influx of fortune seekers and exploitation of natural resources. The group links up with an Indian who helps them take a family of jaguars to the remote region where a refuge is to be established. But even the harsh beauty of an isolated area cannot protect the animals from human greed, and danger lurks in the heart of the jungle. Although the plot sometimes seems contrived, this fast-paced adventure and survival tale blends enough action, suspense, and legend to keep readers interested until the end. Malcolm Bosse's descriptive Deep Dream of the Rainforest (Farrar, 1993) provides a more detailed and intricate look at a similar environment in Borneo for more mature readers.?Janet Woodward, Franklin High School, Seattle, WA

From AudioFile

Adventure, "lost" lands, contemporary issues, multigenerational families, endangered animals and intrigue-JAGUAR has them all! Jake Lansa tells of his visit to his father's biology project site in Brazil-and how it turns into a quest to establish a wildlife preserve. As the Lansa project moves from staging area to the deepest reaches of the rain forest, Johnny Heller conveys both the intensity of a teenager thrilled with the unexpected responsibility of flying the project's ultralight and the frustration of a boy whose father devotes more attention to his work than his son. Each of the extensive cast of supporting characters is differentiated clearly. Heller presents them all as individuals passionately dedicated to the jaguar project. A.R.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Jaguar - very cool, Nov. 8 2003
ok i know you've read the other reviews so ill make this quick. I absolutly HATE to read. but when I was required to read a book I randomly chose this one from the school library. so i decided to read it and I couldnt put it down! unlike alot of other books this one starts off with the hook sinker, then keeps your attention. I rated this book 100 out of 100.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Awesome book of survival and intrigue, Juil 30 2003
Par Un client
This is a great book to use for the classroom. I plan to use it in my 6th grade Language Arts class. This book has it all - great characters, superb plot, survival/adventure aspects, and internal and external conflicts. I look forward to reading more of Roland Smith's books.

This book is a so-so book. It is pretty interesting but it sort of dragged on and on!! This book overall could have had a little less detail and little MORE plot!!
