A staunch loner, lean 'n' mean prickle machine Cactus Joe learns to value having others in his life in this heartwarming story about friendship.

Cactus Joe is a lean 'n' mean prickle machine! He lives all alone in the desert and that's the way he likes it . . . until a woodpecker offers Joe a mighty fine deal: he'll eat Joe's pests if he gives him a home. Yeehaw!

But soon more and more birds come to stay, and Joe decides enough is enough. All Joe wants is to be left alone . . . or does he?

A heartwarming rhyming tale inspired by a real-life cactus!
