DESERT VOICES BY BYRD BAYLOR

Desert Voices by Byrd Baylor with illustrations by Peter Parnall "On the hottest summer afternoons when desert creatures look for shade and stay close to the earth and keep their voices low I sit high on a cactus and fling my loud ringing trill out to the sun... So sings the Cactus Wren, one of the 10 desert creatures that speaks for itself in the evocative and lyrical verses of Desert Speaks. In both text and illustration, Desert Voices conveys a message of spirit and courage from the shy and quiet creatures of the beautiful desert land." back cover Soft cover, 32 pages
