In this Spanish translation of the new and updated English language edition, learn everything you need to know about one of the toughest environments on Earth, from #1 science writer for kids Gail Gibbons.

Deserts cover about one-fifth of the land on Earth and receive very little rain. However, these hot, sandy, and rocky landscapes are filled with the most unique and adaptable plants and animals. Discover everything about this mysterious and beautiful biome in this Spanish language introduction to one of Earth's most challenging habitats.

Learn about the different types of terrain found in deserts from dunes to mesas. Discover how succulents and other plants survive such a dry, hot climate. Meet the birds, critters, and creepy crawlies that call the desert home. Clearly labeled watercolor illustrations introduce young readers to dozens of desert dwellers from the western diamondback rattlesnake to the road runner to the camel.

Gail Gibbons is the author of more than 120 acclaimed books for young readers, including the bestselling titles From Seed to Plant and Monarch Butterflies. Spanish translations of her extensive backlist have received critical acclaim, with School Library Journal noting that educators everywhere are rejoicing because Gibbons's science-themed picture books are being translated into Spanish.
