Charlotte Mason looked at the world and saw that it was governed by universal laws, such as the law of gravity. Then she wondered. What if there were similar laws that governed the way people learn? If we knew what those laws were, we’d be able to pursue education along the most promising lines. She devoted her life to finding the key principles of education and then developing methods to make the most of them. These principles are for everyone concerned with teaching and learning.

Resumen del Editor
But the wonders of the rainforest more than make up for the hideous Carters. And when Maia meets a mysterious boy who lives alone on the wild river shores, she begins a spectatcular journey to the heart of an extraordinary new world.
Reseñas de la Crítica
"The unconventional cast of characters is highly appealing, and Ibbotson does a wonderful job of turning genre themes topsy-turvy in delightfully humorous style, at the same time adding fine details that expand and enrich the traditional orphan-adventure plot." (Booklist)

Weekly ballet classes are Harriet Morton's only escape from her intolerably dull life. So when she is chosen to join a corps de ballet which is setting off on a tour of the Amazon, she leaps at the chance to run away for good. Performing in the grand opera houses is everything Harriet dreamed of, and falling in love with an aristocratic exile makes her new life complete. Swept away by it all, she is unaware that her father and intended fiance have begun to track her down.

In 1962, Don and Carol Richardson risked their lives to share the gospel with the Sawi people of New Guinea. Peace Child tells their unforgettable story of living among these headhunters and cannibals who valued treachery through fattening victims with friendship before the slaughter. God gave Don and Carol the key to the Sawi hearts via a redemptive analogy from their own mythology.

Abridged
The book is abridged and you are not told that at time of purchase. I have listened to the story many times on CD. Although the narration is good and the story is excellent-it is marred by the interference of the thought police. Abridging the book is a travesty.

Not a real Journey on the Amazon
I was disappointed with this book. I was hoping that it would show more of the culture and the intricacies of the South American rainforest and how the characters survived. But it was more of a Pollyanna, Cinderella, Shirley Temple story sprinkled with Little Lord Faunteroy, Oliver Twist, and the Prince and the Pauper. This was not what I was looking for. I read this story because it was recommended text for a Geography course that I will be teaching. It did not meet my expectations.
Now if you are interested in a story about an orphaned girl who finds friendship and a love for the Amazon, this is for you. But, this not what I expected for a geography course.
