Juliane Koepcke

I am so happy to have finally track down a copy of this book. It was published in 2011 and on December 24th, 2021 it will mark the 50th anniversary of the plane crash in which Juliane Koepcke was the sole survivor in the Peruvian rain forest. Tragically, she lost her mother who was also on that flight. She then had to try to find someone to help her as she was all alone in the dense forest with a lot of injuries. She has since over the years championed the work her parents started and gone back many times for her own research and preservation of the research station her parents started. It is a truly remarkable story of a young woman,this catastrophic event, and how much good she has done since that fateful day!
So much i did not know about the Peruvian rain forest including all the interesting animals, the people and their ways of life. Remarkable story!!… (plus d'informations)
