Once again Alexander Cold and his indomitable journalist grandmother, Kate, are braving the mystical unknown, this time in the heart of Africa. Along with Alex's friend Nadia Santos and a photographic crew from International Geographic magazine, they have travelled to Kenya to work on an article about the continent's first elephant-led safaris. But when a missionary approaches their camp in search of companions who have mysteriously disappeared, Alex, Nadia, and their group find themselves embarking on a dangerous mission to Africa's equatorial forest to aid a clan of Pygmies. For the Cold expedition is the tribe's last hope for survival in a world where poaching, corruption, and slavery run rampant.
Forest of the Pygmies is the concluding volume of acclaimed author Isabel Allende's celebrated trilogy, which begins with City of the Beasts and continues with Kingdom of the Golden Dragon.

About the Author:
From AudioFile:
Isabel Allende is the author of twelve works of fiction, including the New York Times bestsellers Maya’s Notebook, Island Beneath the Sea, Inés of My Soul, Daughter of Fortune, and a novel that has become a world-renowned classic, The House of the Spirits. Born in Peru and raised in Chile, she lives in California.
The third installment in a trilogy for young adults stands on its own as a book about adventure and the complex relationships between peoples, cultures, animals, and the environment. Blair Brown is a strong guide for this adventure. Her storytelling powers bring to life the jungle, the animals, and the human characters. Her cool, even presentation of the extraordinary adds to its believability. Allende treats her young readers with respect for their intellect. Brown complements that respect by drawing out the suspense and drama with subtlety and giving a nuanced narration that will stimulate their imaginations.

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In The Forest of the Pygmies, the final book in Isabel Allende's page-turning adventure trilogy, young Alexander Cold, his friend Nadia Santos, and his grandmother Kate Cold go on assignment to Africa, where they discover a hidden world of corruption and slavery. Available in trade paperback for the first time, this thrilling coming-of-age novel from Allende, acclaimed author of The Sum of Our Days and The House of the Spirits, is "packed with hair-raising near misses and vivid glimpses of Africa's landscapes, tribal customs, and wildlife." (Kirkus Reviews) With her signature magic realism, Allende masterfully delivers the final installment of her celebrated trilogy chronicling the journeys of Jaguar and Eagle, which soars with radiant settings, spirits, beings--and the transformation of an extraordinary friendship.
