On October 12, the book "Embaúba: a tree and many lives" was launched at the reading bookstore in Manaus.
The book written in trilingual edition (Portuguese, Japanese and English) is the inspiration of INPA / CENBAM researcher Dr. Noemia Kazue Ishikawa, in collaboration with researchers Takakazu Yumoto and William E. Magnusson. With beautiful illustrations by Hadna Abreu, the book introduces children to the wonders of biology and the interactions between plants, animals and fungi, in addition to telling true stories about a special tree, the embaúba.
