The Quest for Z

The True Story of Explorer Percy Fawcett and a Lost City in the Amazon



In the style of his New York Times Best Illustrated book Tricky Vic, Greg Pizzoli's Z is an unusual and irreverent twist on a picture book biography--think Indiana Jones for eight-year-olds.

From an award-winning author comes a picture book biography that feels like Indiana Jones for kids!

British explorer Percy Fawcett believed that hidden deep within the Amazon rainforest was an ancient city, lost for the ages. Most people didn’t even believe this city existed. But if Fawcett could find it, he would be rich and famous forever. This is the true story of one man’s thrilling, dangerous journey into the jungle, and what he found on his quest for the lost city of Z.
