Title: Sizzling Pan Ranch
Description: "Tempting glimpses of the dangerous and beautiful California desert, in this occasionally amusing family story in which the twelve-year-old Kim aids his parents and sister in acclimating themselves to desert life. When the Eawthornes arrived from New Jersey, at Sizzling Pan Ranch, everyone except Tim was disconcerted to discover that not only did a rough old prospector, Pete, go with the house as caretaker, but also that they were expected to care for a camel named Sinbad."
