Four desert critters show their importance in the survival of the Sonoran Desert, in this delightful book about the unsung heroes of the desert.
Meet Remy the cockroach, Penny the packrat, Duane the dung beetle, and Timmy the termite. See the pivotal role they play in the existence of the Sonoran Desert each and every day.
The huge Sonoran landscape covers the southern half of Arizona, southeastern California, and much of Sonora and Baja California in Mexico.
Once upon a time, in the vast expanse of a sun-scorched desert, life thrived in subtle interwoven harmony. Beneath the blistering sun and shifting sands, a small creature played a vital role in maintaining this delicate balance.
And so the story begins.
