Death Valley

Death Valley in the American Southwest isn’t a destination for those who don’t enjoy the heat! Its scary name was given to it by a group of gold seekers who barely made it out of the valley alive. In fact, a few in their group weren’t as lucky. Readers of this book will find out more about the unique landscape of this national park and about the animals and plants that have the vital adaptations needed to live there. Incredible photographs reflect why so many visitors make the trip to California and Nevada to experience Death Valley for themselves.
