Zonia’s home is the Amazon rain forest, where it is always green and full of life. Every morning, the rain forest calls to Zonia, and every morning, she answers. She visits the sloth family, greets the giant anteater, and runs with the speedy jaguar. But one morning, the rain forest calls to her in a troubled voice. How will Zonia answer? Caldecott Honor and Robert F. Sibert Medal-winning author-illustrator Juana Martinez-Neal explores the wonders of the rain forest with Zonia, an Asháninka girl, in her joyful outdoor adventures.

Juana Martinez-Neal is the daughter and granddaughter of painters. She started her story in Lima, Peru, and then moved to the United States. The winner of a 2018 Pura Belpré Illustrator Award for La Princesa and the Pea by Susan Middleton Elya, she continues to write the story of her life day-by-day. She currently resides in Arizona with her husband and three children.

Sisa Quispe is a multilingual Indigenous Quechua-Aymara artist who started her career as an accountant. After living in Peru and moving to New York City, she enjoys breaking stereotypes and educating society on Native Americans through her storytelling.

Reviews

This book isn’t just about the Peruvian Amazon, it literally is the Peruvian Amazon . . . But what truly makes it stand out is its message of self-determination: These Indigenous people, Martinez-Neal has written, are “not saved but take charge." Expand reviews
