(4) 4-6 World Cultures series. This book presents the customs and lifestyle of the Yanomami Indians, who live in the rainforests of Brazil and Venezuela. Topics include daily life, family, housing, food, clothing, and beliefs. An explanation of how the threatened rainforest endangers these people concludes the book. The large-font text can be simplistic, but the many photographs are compelling. A superficial quiz is appended. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind.
