Gila Monsters Meet You at The Airport Paperback Book

This kid lives in New York, and plans to live there forever. Unfortunately, his parents are moving out west, so he has to pack up and go with them. But out west is the worst! There are too many buffaloes, everybody has to ride a horse all the time even if they don’t want to, and you can’t sit down anywhere because of all the cactus! Right? (Maybe the cactus part, but I digress...)

This is a great book for any kid facing a move, or any kid who knows better about the desert! This book was on Reading Rainbow in the 90’s, so you know it’s a gem.
