Although the classic image of a desert is an extremely hot, dry environment with few plants surviving under a beating sun, not all deserts are like that. Some are sandy, some are rocky, and some are actually really cold. Students will be pulled in by the dramatic design of this book and will keep reading because of the interesting facts about the plants and animals that survive in the Earth's driest ecosystem.
