Sibert Honor winner Sy Montgomery explores how tiny fish living in the Amazon river, called piabas, can help preserve not only the rainforest and its often misunderstood inhabitants, but the fate of our entire environment. This installment in the Scientists in the Field series includes gorgeous full-color photography.

"Montgomery thoroughly mines the social and economic effects the piabas have on locals alongside an in-depth exploration of the Amazon river and its ecosystems. The science and sociology are interesting and unusual, and the narrative itself enthralling." --Booklist, starred review

Considered the "lungs of the world," the Amazon provides a full fifth of the world's oxygen, and every year unsustainable human practices destroy 2.7 million acres of it. What can be done to help? That's where Project Piaba comes in. Join the award-winning author Sy Montgomery and the photographer Keith Ellenbogen as they traverse the river and rainforest to discover how tiny fish, called piabas, can help preserve the Amazon, its animals, and the rich legacy of its people. Amazon Adventure is an eye-opening--and ultimately hopeful--exploration of how humanity's practices are affecting and shaping not only the Amazon, but our entire environment.

Waste of money for me
Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I brought this product to see if it would help my 1 year old skin because she have a lot of break out and her break out gets badly inflamed and puffy. I try this product and it actually made it worse. It say it help for itching but my child itching increase. It dry up her skin and left like a chalky feel on the skin. I really wish I could get my money back.

Miracle in a bottle!!
I NEVER give reviews but for this I had to!! I purchased this bottle and used a bit on my niece who is 3 years old because she also has sinus issues. It helped her immediately!! I threw it in my purse and never used it on myself and forgot about it. I have been having really bad Asthma flare ups for the past 2 months with tightness in my chest, severe bloating and phlegm for days! I was on albuterol, prescription cough medicine, Z pack and prednisone it helped a little but never got rid of it. My sinus and allergies were bad as well!! I was just suffering terribly!! A few days later after I used it on my neice my asthma worsened to the point I almost went in to ER because it was so bad. I remebered it so I pulled it out of my bag rubbed it on my back, chest, neck and my forehead. I cannot tell you enough the immediate relief I felt!! I was finally able to sleep well that night and today I did not have to use my asthma machine at all!! Idk what this lil bottle did but it worked like a lil miracle on me!! THANK YOU FOR THIS PRODUCT!! I have already ordered MORE!!

THIS STUFF WORKS
I’ve been bed ridden w some type of facial/sinus infection for months on and off, and when I tell you this was the ONLY thing that helped w my intense headache pain, IT REALLY WORKED ! Best thing I’ve ever used tbh, and I’m always trying natural things for pain relief. (I hate pills but sometimes nothing else works for my chronic migraines) but this stuff is amazing. and it smells so good ! I’d totally buy again, and I’ve always recommended it to two other ppl, and they loved how it worked as well !
