A 2026 NSTA-CBC Best STEM Book Winner!
Baori lives in a village in the Maowusu Desert. Very little grows there, and so young people often move away. When Baori hears that the land wasn’t always this dry and that there used to be lots of trees and plants, she wants to do something: she wants to make the desert smaller and the green land bigger. She convinces her neighbors to work together . . .
An inspiring story based on true events about persevering and living in nature. For children ages 5 years and up.
