Senor Saguaro: King of the Desert

by Lisa Rose, Emma Graham (Illustrator)

Overview

It takes more than attitude to be KING!



Señor Saguaro has lived many years in the sol caliente with agua poco. He knows just what it takes to grow and thrive in the Sonoran Desert…or does he?



After befriending a bat, a woodpecker family, and a fruit-loving pack rat, Señor Saguaro sees his royal role in his ecosystem in a whole new way.

About the Author

Lisa Rose writes children's books, including the award-winning picture book, The Singer and the Scientist. Lisa is only five feet tall, so, the saguaro cactus looks very majestic to her. She lives near Detroit, Michigan where most of the time it is too cold for saguaros. But it is not cold for her dog, two cats, one fish, and three hermit crabs. Lisa loves to swim, practice yoga, and eat ice cream, just not at the same time.
