The cover of "Javelina! Have-uh-WHAT? (Have-uh-LEE-nah)" describes a lot . It introduces a word many people have never heard of, tells how it is spelled and pronounced, and shows a photo of the fierce-looking beast. These pig-like wild animals roam the Southwestern U.S. deserts, in this case, the Sonoran Desert. The author took great pleasure in photographing them from her home. The text describes javelina habits, habitat, food, enemies, and family life. It's fun to read.
