Illustrated by Keith Graves.
Desert Rose tells the story of pig farmer Rose, who finds herself in a bit of a quandary when she can't get her sure-to-be-prize-winning hog over the creek in time to win first prize at the state fair.
She tries to enlist the help of all sorts of varmints, including a coyote, a rattlesnake and a cowboy, but to no avail.
It's only after Rose very nicely asks an armadillo that a chain of events is set in motion that's sure to leave everyone happy!
