Children listen and watch with rapt attention as Martin Wach tells of his Rain Forest Adventures and Delia Wach demonstrates her amazing talent with interactive illustrations for the classroom. Martin and Delia speak about their experiences living and working with the Maroon Indians in the last great Rain Forest left on Planet Earth in Suriname, South America. Delia relates stories about the cast of characters from their new children's book, Teddy Bear Guardians of the Rain Forest and Martin tells stories of his adventures teaching the Maroon Indians micro-business skills such as medicinal plant exploration, bird farming (Aviculture), butterfly farming, and poison dart frog farming.
