Deserts

by JoAnn Early Macken

Many people have preconceptions about biomes, especially deserts. They picture only hot, barren wastelands where nothing lives. This valuable volume teaches young Earth explorers some surprising facts about desert habitats. For example, some deserts don't have sand, and some are quite cold. They'll also learn how some resilient plants and animals survive in these arid environments. Beautiful images accompany the accessible low-ATOS text.
