by Denise Fleming (Author), Denise Fleming (Illustrator)

What Is Hibernation? (Science of Living Things)
by John Crossingham (Author), Bobbie Kalman (Author)

Highlights include: how an animal's body uses fat to survive and even wake itself up; how an animal finds and prepares...

What Is Migration? (Science of Living Things)

What Is Migration? (Science of Living Things)
by John Crossingham (Author), Bobbie Kalman (Author)

This work is for ages 6-12. When most people think of migration, they think of birds flying south to escape the cold winter - but many other animals migrate for many different reasons. From whales and deer to butterflies and eels, animals migrate to breed, feed, stay warm, find water, and even fall asleep! In each case, animals follow paths that have been passed on for generations helping their species survive. Children will be amazed by: the Arctic tern - a bird that travels from the Arctic to...
