They both live in the desert, and both want someone to play with. Francisco thinks that he's "taming" Amigo, his pet -- but Amigo knows better. Reviewer: "What a delightful story set in the desert of the great Southwest. Francisco, the little boy, works to tame a little desert creature as a pet. What does the little animal think about that? The story is written in loose rhyme, loose so that it doesn't feel restrictive in any way. The illustrations are wonderful, and catch so well the emotions of all the characters, and the ambiance of the setting."
