O ovoj audio knjizi

This narrative nonfiction picture book by the creator of the acclaimed Sea Bear and Yoshi and the Ocean celebrates the awe-inspiring 18,000-mile migration of one of Earth’s most amazing animals—the Arctic tern. Features a map and extensive back matter.

With bodies home to hollow bones and weighing about the same as a handful of sand, Arctic terns are designed for flight. And fly they do. These remarkable animals migrate an astonishing 18,000 miles—from pole to pole and back again—each year. Along the way they encounter danger, weather, other migratory animals, and a wide range of ecosystems and habitats. Because they chase the sun, ornithologists speculate that the Arctic tern enjoys more hours of daylight than any other animal on Earth.

As she did in her acclaimed picture books Sea Bear and Yoshi and the Ocean, Lindsay Moore combines a poetic, highly readable, science-rich text with gorgeously rendered watercolor paintings. Readers will be swept away by the beautiful and graceful terns, the spectacular landscapes and seascapes they traverse, the sheer magnitude of their journey, and the awesome mysteries of nature. A terrific choice for schools, for science and language arts curriculums, and for family sharing. Includes extensive back matter.
