The Sahara Desert: The Biggest Desert

by Aileen Weintraub

The Sahara is almost as large as the United States. Daytime temperatures have soared to 136 degrees Fahrenheit and, hours later, plunged to below freezing at night. Few could survive more than four hours there without water. Yet, this hostile environment is home to 2.5 million people.
