| "We live in the Sonoran Desert, but do we know the critters that live among us? And could we identify them by their tracks and their... uh... poop? Brother and sister Michael and Emily learn that the Sonoran Desert isn't barren and are amazed by its abundance of animal life. Fun to read, yet very educational."
