Deserts are the driest places on Earth, but they’re full of life! Cacti, kangaroo rats, shrubs, foxes, and more have found ways to adapt to the extreme temperatures and dry conditions of deserts around the world. Readers learn about many of these adaptations as well as the major features of the desert biome. Simple maps highlight some of the biggest deserts, helping readers learn map skills. Full-color photographs reinforce accessible information about the desert ecosystem, including a concluding message of conservation.

La poesía revienta, estruja, libera, asciende, te asesina, te acurruca, te limpia el alma, te corrompe los miedos. La poesía te convierte, lo ha hecho conmigo y si estuviera en un plano de paradojas contradictorias, yo convierto la poesía y la poesía me hace poeta. Yo te hago musa, tu me haces profeta. Y así vamos de la mano, en un viaje donde la poesía te convierte, mientras yo la hago. Francisco Medina

Cynthia Ann Parkers family moved to Central Texas when she was about nine years old. A year later, a large force of Comanche warriors attacked Fort Parker and seized Cynthia Ann and four other captives. The other four were eventually released, but she lived among the Indians for 25 years, immersed in the Comanche way of life. Though given a number of opportunities to go back to her white family, she always chose her life with the Comanche, choosing instead to stay with her husband and children. She eventually returned to white society as an adult.
