The Cactus Dance / La Danza del Cactus - by April Lesher (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

The Cactus Dance/ La Danza del Cactus begins on a quiet summer day with the giant Saguaro Cactus soaking in the sun. Then, a drop of rain changes everything as the desert awakens under an exhilarating and refreshing thunderstorm. Cactus leads readers in a playful dance where children will join desert critters and wildlife in a monsoon celebration with stomping, growling, twirling, and howling.

Review Quotes

"It's difficult to find children's books with this level of visual and verbal engagement that is also accessible to two language communities. I'll be eagerly on the lookout for the next book from this incredibly talented pair of creators, and you should be too." Reviewed by Olivia Ard for Readers' Favorite
