Time to Move South for Winter
Description
Fly over the cold waters of the Arctic and watch a world of animals travel south for winter…
Over the cold, mirrored waters of the Arctic, a tiny tern sets off on the world's longest animal migration. On her way, she passes humpback whales, caribou, Canada geese, leatherback turtles, and monarch butterflies, each on their own incredible journey south for winter.
When the Arctic tern finally arrives, she must find a new home on the Antarctic shore . . . until it's time to return to the northern skies once again.
A beautiful, lyrical, and reassuring bedtime story, perfect for young animal lovers, with a map and two pages of nonfiction facts at the end.
