Meet the three javelinas, playful desert animals who build their homes from tumbleweeds and cactus ribs. When a hungry coyote comes prowling, the first two javelinas dash to their clever sister’s sturdy adobe brick house, where they find safety and outsmart their foe. This fun and lively twist on a classic tale brings the spirit of the Southwest to life with humor and adventure.
