Examines the deserts of the Southwest, their ecosystems, and their responses to temperature and weather.
Gr 5-8--These well-written, well-organized titles examine how the plants and animals in each ecosystem effect one another and their environments. Descriptions of each area are provided along with a map and numerous full-color photographs. Adaptations that species have made and the impact of human development are also considered. Each volume includes occasional sidebars and one or two experiments, such as comparing one's home soil acidity to that of the prairie given the pH level of the latter, and designing a "drought-resistant leaf."--Allison Trent Bernstein, Blake Middle School, Medfield, MA
