Van der Doelen crazy to know wild deserts

Crazy to know: Wild Deserts. Humorously presented information about life in the desert. With cheerful black-and-white illustrations. For ages 9 and up. Wild Deserts, that's geography at its rawest! Do you sometimes find geography a bit dry? Then brace yourself and come along to a bunch of... uh... incredibly dry Wild Deserts. Say goodbye to those boring geography lessons, climb aboard the wobbly four-legged desert ship, and discover all the secrets of the sweaty sand plains of our planet. And if you've been on the road for a while: - you'll probably have to swallow hard when you're forced to drink camel pee to stay alive; - you'll get the creeps when a sand dune starts wandering before your eyes; - you'll start screaming when you come face to face with a deadly rattlesnake; - you'll be amazed by the courage of the brave desert traveler who journeyed to Timbuktu. And if you haven't already evaporated in all those wild deserts, read on about the snowy desert, or how to make a delicious camel milk dessert. Do you dare to take on a desert survival trip? It's incredibly exciting!
