| Publisher Description: Las canciones y poemas infantiles tradicionales sobre el desierto que son f ciles de recordar har n que los ni os canten acerca de los cactus, los camellos y m s, mientras aprenden acerca del h bitat del desierto, su flora y fauna. La rata canguro (tarkawara) salta sobre la arena del desierto en lugar del kookaburra sentado en el rbol del chicle. Y las teteras no son las nicas cosas que son peque as y corpulentas -mira nada m s los colmillos y al hocico del jabal . Prep rate para excavar con las suricatas, volar con los murci lagos y sisear con los monstruos de gila Ya sea cantado o le do en voz alta, en lo profundo del desierto hace que el aprendizaje sobre los desiertos sea todo menos seco. |
