  1. 1. Sundust

    In Sundust, two curious siblings roam the sun-baked desert on the edge of their El Paso hometown, exploring nopal trees, old tires, and sleeping rocks as rain and sun shape the land and their days. Spare, lyrical text and vivid illustrations evoke the sensory rhythms of desert life and the quiet ways a place becomes part of a person.
