Description - Flying Frogs and Walking Fish by Steve Jenkins
A red-lipped batfish waddles across the sea floor on its fins, searching for small sea creatures to eat. Other animals may fly or glide, or jet-propel themselves to get around. These creatures come equipped with legs, wings, or tentacles, and they often move from place to place in surprising ways. In the latest eye-catching escape into the kingdom of Animalia, Caldecott Honor-winning team Jenkins and Page show how animals roll, fly, walk, leap, climb, swim and even flip! This fascinating and fun illustrated nonfiction melds science, art, biology, and the environment together in a detailed and well-researched book about how animals move in our world today. AGES: 4-7 AUTHOR: Robin Page lives in Boulder, Colorado, with her husband and collaborator, Steve Jenkins, and their three children. Along with writing and illustrating children's books, Steve and Robin run a graphic design studio. REVIEWS: "As usual, Jenkins's collages capture the animals' distinctive characteristics with precision and attention to detail, while a closing spread offers notable tidbits about the animals within." Publishers Weekly "This fine overview is destined to be a popular addition to any science collection." SLJ March/April Issue
