A tiny cricket bounces across the scorching desert sand, making leap after leap. Hot on its trail is a bird--not flying but running. It is a roadrunner. The small bird is quick and soon gobbles up the insect. Then it zooms off again, hunting for more prey. Welcome to life in the desert! Young readers will learn all about the desert environment where the roadrunner lives, as well as its physical characteristics, what it eats, and how it survives in its hot, dry home. Colorful photos and diagrams, clear text, age-appropriate activities, and critical-thinking questions will keep young readers turning the pages as they take a closer look at this intriguing desert dweller.

This is a true story about a special relationship that developed between a wild desert bird and the owner and friends of a special house in the Western Mojave in California. If you have ever looked into the eyes of a wild animal, especially in its natural habitat, you know how special that moment can be. Anyone with a family pet knows the special bond between animal and man and it can be a truly amazing experience. In fact, most pet "owners" consider their animals to be an integral part of the family and include them in weddings, rely on them for protection and grieve upon their demise. Having an untamed animal not only approach you but maintain a constant presence throughout its life was transformative for me and became a defining part of my life. It is a story that is best shared and will hopefully enrich yours as well.

Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers' 1972 song “Roadrunner” captures the freedom and wonder of cruising down the highway late at night with the radio on. Although the song circles Boston's beltway, its significance reaches far beyond Richman's deceptively simple declarations of love for modern moonlight, the made world, and rock & roll. In Roadrunner, cultural theorist and poet Joshua Clover charts both the song's emotional power and its elaborate history, tracing its place in popular music from Chuck Berry to M.I.A. He also locates “Roadrunner” at the intersection of car culture, industrialization, consumption, mobility, and politics. Like the song itself, Clover tells a story about a particular time and place—the American era that rock & roll signifies—that becomes a story about love and the modern world.
