Lost in the Amazon

It's Christmas Eve, 1970, and 17-year-old Juliane Koepcke has been looking forward to traveling from Lima, Peru to her parents' research station in the Amazon. But when the plane flies into a storm, disaster strikes: lightning hits the plane, the fuselage rips apart, and Juliane finds herself falling thousands of feet to the forest floor, still strapped into her seat. The next morning, she wakes up, shocked to discover she's alive — and not too badly hurt. Still, she's stranded in the middle of the Amazon rainforest, far from home. Juliane's scientist parents have taught her how to survive there, but does she know enough to get herself to safety? This stand-alone addition to the Lost series tells the gripping real-life story of Koepcke's experience as the only survivor of a plane crash in the middle of the Amazon.
