Imagine seeing hundreds of the same type of animal gathered at the same place at the same time! Right here in North America, many animals gather in huge numbers at predictable times and locations. Not all migrations are tied to seasonal food changes-some are tied to life cycles. Certain birds, reptiles, mammals, amphibians, fish, and even insects migrate during spring, summer, fall, or winter. Travel along with them as you learn about what puts these animals On the Move. This nonfiction picture book with a cuddle factor includes a 4-page For Creative Minds section in the back of the book and a 42-page cross-curricular Teaching Activity Guide online. On the Move is vetted by experts and designed to encourage parental engagement. Its extensive back matter helps teachers with time-saving lesson ideas, provides extensions for science, math, and social studies units, and uses inquiry-based learning to help build critical thinking skills in young readers. The Spanish translation supports ELL and dual-language programs. The interactive ebook reads aloud in both English and Spanish with word highlighting and audio speed control to promote oral language skills, fluency, pronunciation, text engagement, and reading comprehension. Cohn uses captivating, easy-to-understand language to explore animal migration. Each entry introduces a different animals habitat and eating, hibernating, and breeding behaviors. - School Library Journal

Imagine seeing hundreds or thousands of the same sort of animal in one place. Many kinds of animals gather in large groups at certain times of the year. This is how some of them find a mate. Animals sometimes travel in big groups from one location
or climate to a different one. They do this to find food or to give birth in a warm, safe place. These movements are called migration. Spring, summer, fall, or winter you can see huge numbers of
animals on the move.

Spring paints the forest in fresh shades of purple, yellow, and green. Warm rain falls in drips and
drops on the cold ground. Spotted salamanders crawl out of their underground homes after dark. The earth is soft and cool beneath their feet. The salamanders are ready to go. This is their big night, and soon they are on the move. They wiggle through the woods. They squiggle across the fields. They wriggle across the roads. Finally, they reach the wetland pool. There they find their mates. Females lay their eggs just under the surface of the water.

Spring swoops onto the prairie on a brisk, bold breeze. A warbling, trumpeting, chirping noise gets louder and louder. Soon hundreds of thousands of sandhill cranes fill the sky. Theyre on the move!

When you look at the cranes flying, they look tiny. Once they are on the ground, you can see that some of them are taller than you.

During spring migration, they court each other by doing what looks like a dance. They flap their wings, bow their heads, run, skip, and leap.

Thousands of horseshoe crabs are on the move in the spring. They look like little armored tanks with spiked tails. They scuttle out of the bay onto the beach to mate. The females lay eggs in the sand.

Red knots fly in to eat the eggs. The birds are tired and thin after their long trip from South America. Soon they will be plump and ready to fly to the Arctic to nest.

Common green darner dragonflies hover over nearby gardens and fields. They are on their way north. Larger groups of them will pass through here when they fly south in the fall.

The bright summer sun shines all day and all night in the far north. A mother caribou snorts and shakes her head. She is telling her calf to stay close to her. He is still too small to protect himself against bears and wolves.

Thousands of caribou travel north every spring. Calves are born where many tender young plants grow. The caribou have plenty to eat there. By mid-summer, the herd is again on the move. They travel up into the mountains. Cool mountain breezes help keep mosquitoes away from them.

Thousands of chimney swifts are on the move in late summer and early fall - photo 14

Thousands of chimney swifts are on the move in
late summer and early fall. Each evening they soar and swoop above an old brick smokestack. They dip and dive. They chitter and chatter like children on a playground. Around and around they fly. Then they swirl down into the smokestack to spend the night. They are getting ready to travel south for the winter. Most of them will be gone by the end of October.

The end of summer is near. Crickets are singing their evening song. Deep in a cave, a Brazilian free-tailed bat pup wakes up and flexes her wings. She has been roosting all day and now shes hungry. Shes not the only one. Soon huge clouds of small, dark, winged bodies whirl through the sky. The bats are hunting for moths, beetles, and other insects. For the first time in her life, the new pup joins her mother to look for food. In the fall, she and the rest of her colony will be on the move, migrating south for the winter.

Up north, the autumn air is chilly. Monarch butterflies flutter their brilliant orange and gold wings. Soon they are on the move. More and more monarchs join the flight until tens of millions of monarchs are flying south together.

These butterflies have not made this trip before. Somehow they know to take the same route as the monarchs who lived before them. They even stop to rest in the same places. Once they reach their southern home, the monarchs will sleep for much of the winter.

Where polar bears live, fall brings a cruel chill
to the air. Days grow short, and snow clouds fill the sky. On huge padded feet, the polar bears lumber toward the waters edge. They have been on land for several months. When they are on land, they eat only berries, roots, bird eggs, and small animals. The bears are very hungry now. They
