Very Well done.

...Desert Town, written by Bonnie and Arthur Geisert, is an overview of life in a town in the middle of the desert. The story goes through what daily life for the residents is like and shows some interesting details that separate them from AnyTown, USA. The people of the town have to alter their lives to adapt to their environment. They change many daily activities to avoid the blistering heat of their locale. Yet through it all, the people do not seem to mind their unusual lives. The illustrations are simple and direct and seem to display accurately the desolate feel of a real desert. The text unfolds an interesting and informative story and informs the reader of what life in a desert can be like. A delightful combination of text and pictures, the book gives an accurate account of desert life. The story is simple but allows for the reader to discover a different ways of life in a different kind of town.

A very simple, realistic story of small town living

Kids ages 4-8 will relish this very simple, realistic story of small town living. A dry desert town is filled with life year-round in this fourth story of small town living, which is thin on words and big on pictures filled with fine detail.

They've done it again!
