You may think of the desert as a harsh, dry place where no one would want to live — but think again. The Desert people know. So do the animals.

Byrd Baylor's spare, poetic text and Peter Parnall's striking illustrations limn the sky, stone, and sand of the desert in this haunting, Caldecott Honor-winning book.
