Ages 5 to 8 years. Text in Spanish. The desert is a habitat of extreme climate that provides plants and animals with unique survival challenges. A Desert Habitat provides an introduction to one of the world's most fascinating desert habitats: the Sonoran Desert. More plants and animals live in the Sonoran Desert than in any other desert on Earth. A Desert Habitat uses simple language and large, full-colour images to teach children about: the weather in the Sonoran Desert; how Sonoran Desert plants perform photosynthesis; how animals find food, keep cool, and stay alive.
