Deserts

Here is the perfect introduction to the places where animals and plants live and grow. Each book explores one of the world's major biomes and describes its climate, the people who live and work there, threats to the environment, and measures that are being taken to protect it. This book looks at the world's deserts and how animals and plants have adapted to survive where there is little water and where temperatures may be scorching hot by day and bitterly cold at night.
