“Like the other books in this series, this title explores the region’s geology, topography, flora and fauna in their habitats (including prehistoric ones), the ancient peoples who inhabited it, and changes past, present, and future. […] An informative, attractive, and in-depth tour of a land with much to offer.” — Kirkus Reviews

“I enjoyed reading this handsome non-fiction book about the Sahara Desert. It’s a great overview of the Desert’s formation, climate, topography, wildlife, people, and prehistory.
[…] I was especially glad to see several women mentioned in historical passages, and both women and men are portrayed in scenes of settlements. […] This book is an excellent overview for early elementary school students who want to learn about this fascinating part of the world” — Stephanie Tournas, Youth Services Book Review
