Desert Voices
by Byrd Baylor (Author) Peter Parnall (Illustrator)
On the hottest
summer afternoons
when desert creatures
look for shade
and stay close to the earth
and keep their voices
lowand fling
my loud ringing trill
out to the sun...
So sings the Cactus Wren, one of the ten desert creatures that speaks for itself in the evocative and lyrical verses of "Desert Voices." In both text and illustration, "Desert Voices" conveys a message of spirit and courage form the shy and quiet creatures of the beautiful desert land.
