Say "desert" and many folks will picture sand, clouds of dust, a smattering of cactuses, and perhaps a tenacious reptile or scorpion fighting for their thirsty lives. But Arizona's Sonoran Desert breaks those barren stereotypes. Sonoran Desert Explorer, penned by expert staff at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum, introduces curious readers and intrepid explorers to the myriad "biomes, animals, plants, geology, and cultures they may come across" when exploring this 120,000-square-mile expanse.
