The Desert Is My Mother El desierto es mi madre is a bilingual book written by Pat Mora and illustrated by Daniel Lechón. It is a beautiful poetic and artistic rendition of the relationship between nature and Hispanics and Native American peoples.

The book, the first illustrated children's book published by Arte Público Press' Piñata Books, introduces the partnership of an award-winning poet and a prize-winning painter.
