The Desert Is Theirs

The desert may seem like a harsh, dry place where no one would ever want to live-but think again. The Desert is Theirs tells the story of the people and animals who call the desert home, seamlessly weaving American Indian myth and folklore with factual descriptions of the Southwest. The sparse, yet eloquent text and vivid illustrations of the desert will delight you as you learn about the Desert People's way of life. 32 pages.
