We used this book while we studied about ancient Egypt to help us understand what a desert is. This book doesn't specifically deal with Egypt though; it talks about deserts. Several kinds of them.
This was a good, basic introduction to deserts. Not overwhelming or too in-depth. Just right for the first grade. Any older though and you'd want to add more to it. The illustrations were nice. I may use this again with the younger kids next time around.
