Description

There are deserts in many parts of the world. Most deserts are huge, dry places where only a few special plants grow. The weather can change quickly from very hot to very cold. People who visit deserts or live there have to be very careful to survive.

Author description

Series editor and author of the Red Rocket reading program, Pam Holden has more than 30 years specialist experience in literacy. As a Reading Recovery teacher she has worked one-to-one with hundreds of children struggling with literacy. Pam's pupils have also included those approaching English as a second language, and children who are advanced and require extension. This experience has given the author a rare insight into the literacy process and has enabled her to identify many key elements that consistently block children's progress.
