When Joe's team is in the running for the basketball playoffs, Wishbone is reminded not to judge people by size as he imagines himself as the seventeenth-century traveler, Lemuel Gulliver, whose adventures included visits to Lilliput, where people are six inches tall, and Brobdingnag, a land peopled by giants.

Sandy a dix ans. Ses parents l'amènent avec eux à l'aventure dans les montagnes du Mali, au coeur du Sahara. Le désert est beau, mais aussi implacable. Le garçon est à dure école, l'inconfort, la chaleur, le soleil, etc. Son initiation est à son comble lorsque le khamsin se manifeste. Ils sont ensevelis dans le sable, les méharis se sont sauvés, le guide, disparu. Tout ce qui leur reste est un peu d'eau. Leur survie est menacée. -- Une trame simple, bien menée, avec un suspense progressif. Le texte rédigé dans un style direct est parsemé de quelques informations sur le monde du désert. [SDM].
