Itza: The Boy Who Rode a Jaguar

Book Description
Itza, a Mayan Indian boy living on the edge of the Yucatan jungle has a mutually illuminating encounter with Noche, the terrifying Jaguar-King. This hauntingly beautiful fable offers a subtle yet salient depiction of Man's current "Worlds in Collision" relationship with Nature. Sheli Peterson's brilliant mastery of color stirs the jungle to life in a breathtaking gallery of illustrations.
