Clementina's Cactus

(2) K-3 Little Clementina, a pioneer girl, examines an ugly cactus near her small shack. The next day, after a storm, the cactus is abloom with brilliant yellow flowers. Showing both the sun-bleached vastness of a desert country as well as its brilliance, the wordless double-page spreads tell the story without a text in this fine reissue.
