Saguaro Moon: A Desert Journal

In this book, a young naturalist sees Gila monsters, watches scorpions with a black light and harvests flowers with a Native American family. The "collage-style" journal features clippings of articles about animals and plants and stories of the native Tonoho O'odham and her own youthful journal entries. This book is a wonderful way to learn about the desert and inspiration to start a nature journal of one's own.

Written and illustrated by Kristin Joy Pratt-Sarafini.
