Used in modern times for mining and the testing of atomic bombs, this vast, sandy area has been home to a number of indigeous peoples for thousands of years. Although there is little rain, the desert blooms with a variety of plants.
Readers will learn about the Mamungari Conservation Park, which is known for a eucalyptus tree called Ooldea mallee with large, spectacular red, pink, or yellow flowers.
