Amazon Jungle twins, one observant and cautious and the other bold and courageous, spot a jaguar. Is it a friend or foe? The boys ask for hunting advice then daringly go off on their own. Can they provide for themselves, successfully adjust to new situations and guard themselves in threatening situations? The exotic setting is real. This story is based on a campfire legend told by native Quechuas along the Napo River to encourage children to be attentive and brave. Values of individual differences, family compassion, self-protection and preserving the environment for future generations are mixed with two suspenseful jaguar encounters and a laughable light hearted trick the twins play on their doting mother. Life is full of tests whether in primitive jungles or in today's modern world. Feel a tremor of fear and the electricity of accomplishment as the Twins Defeat a Jaguar.
