This is a great book for anyone that wants to learn about this desert and the plants and animals that live in it. Unlike some of the other books about this topic that are written in an academic/textbook style, this book is written in a lively, question & answer format and is full of interesting and unusual facts. I've lived in this region for over 25 years and I learned quite a bit by reading this book.

I only saw this once in the bookstore, and just by flipping through it, I knew it had to be a part of my book-collection. Just moving to the desert southwest, I have been thirsty for more about my new eco-system and home........I may not have so many dilemmas now on critters and plants..........

As a new resident, I had lots of questions about such a strange and beautiful land. Everywhere I turned for answers, I was pointed toward this book. So I bought it. The first night after it's arrival I opened it and didn't put it down until it was finished. It's not in my library, however. My wife and I refer to it so much we have to keep it closer.

This book is perfect for me because I live in the Sonora Desert.
I also work at a nursery and get a lot of questions just like the
questions in this book. I am able to answer most questions my
customers ask thanks to this wonderful book.

We started wintering in AZ a few years ago, and when we decided to spend more
time out in the desert, we realised we needed some answers. This book is wonderful. It truly has answers to questions we did not know we needed to ask. It arrived in perfect condition, and so quick!
