MARGARET E A FLOR-DA-LUA (MARGARET AND THE MOONFLOWER)

Margaret dreams of a flower and spends her life searching for it. It is no ordinary bloom: it is the moonflower, a cactus hidden deep within the vast Amazon rainforest. Her grandmother had told her about it—and, as we know, the stories grandmothers share can guide their granddaughters forever. Margaret—both the character in this book and the botanical researcher who inspired her—knows that the moonflower possesses a truly special quality: its petals reveal themselves only occasionally, on nights of a full moon, and for just a few hours. Driven by curiosity and a devotion that was at once artistic, scientific, and spiritual, Margaret Mee—the British botanical researcher who inspired this book—pursued this quest throughout her entire life.

VIAGEM À BAÍA DAS ONÇAS (JOURNEY TO BAIA DAS ONÇAS)

A young reader's adventure into an indigenous world, written by the important anthropologist Betty Mindlin.“Journey to Baia das Onças invites us to see life through the lens of nature and the sacred, just as the indigenous peoples do. For them, the natural world speaks, and its voices can be heard by those who are sensitive. Berenice’s relationship with her garden and the birds is also a metaphor for the indigenous struggle and environmental urgency: a journey that cannot be forgotten and that must be told to future generations so that they learn to care for the Earth, to honor their ancestors and, like Berenice, to move towards a future in which humans, animals and nature coexist in harmony.

A MÃE DA MATA (THE MOTHER OF THE FOREST)

A Mãe da Mata (The Mother of the Forest) is a book that celebrates an important enchanted being from the Amazon. The text flows like a river through the forest, while the images invite an immersion into the sounds, wonders, and colors of our region.

It is a book committed to sharing the richness of these stories—the cultural legacy of the peoples who live in the heart of the forest.
