"The Desert is Theirs" by Byrd Baylor, 1975
“You may think of the desert as a harsh, dry place where no one would ever want to live -- but think again.
The Desert People know. so do the animals. Both love the land, and "share the feeling of being brothers in the desert, of being desert creatures together."
Byrd Baylor's spare, poetic text and Peter Parnall's striking illustrations lime the sky, stone and sand of the desert in this haunting book.”
Hardcover with dust jacket, former library book with typical markings. The dust jacket has had the library cut out and the library stamp is blacked out. Otherwise excellent condition. If feels like it has hardly been opened.
