The aim of this series is to encourage children to explore the wonders of the physical world around them - the geographical features that make our planet unique and amazing - and understand how humans use it. This title looks at deserts: the agents of change that form deserts, where they can be found, how they are used by humans and how they are conserved. Maps will show where they are found in the world and diagrams will explain formations and processes, such as how wind scours caves in deserts.
