Amazing Animals of the Desert 

The desert may look deserted, but it’s certainly not! It’s full of strange and amazing animals. Do you know which animal can close its nostrils in a sandstorm? Or which desert creature never drinks water? Find out the answers, and lots more amazing facts in this book. Non-fiction is an excellent way to foster an interest in new subjects. This set of ten WOW! Facts presents a variety of unusual subjects such as hip hop stars, haunted houses, Formula 1, psychological experiments and lesser-known dinosaurs. And as enthusiasm grows for new interests, so doors are opened in terms of comprehension and reading ability too. Every book in this hi-lo set is aimed at readers of 10-14, but who have a reading age closer to 9-9.5.
