“Kosa Ely’s The Jaguar’s Story is a spell-binding story of the very real challenges faced by jaguars living in the Amazon. The language is beautiful in its simplicity, and the story is brought to life by Radhe Gendron’s vivid and captivating illustrations. Though this book is subtly educational, I was enthralled by the quality of storytelling. On par with stories like The Lion King, children of all ages will LOVE reading this book again and again.”
