A busy home bustles with activity—and unexpected neighbors—in this sweet early reader about welcoming new friends, by a Geisel Honor winning creator.

This cactus is home to many critters. Birds tweet. . . bats read. . . owls play. Everyone shares, and everyone has fun!

Then a storm hits their cactus home. Right away, the spiders pitch in to help. They join. They fix. They make repairs. Maybe these new neighbors will become new friends. . .
