Synopsis
Animals move! Follow them as they swing, dance, float, leap, and slide from page to page, then learn why these animals move the way they do.
Move! is a playful introduction to motion in the animal kingdom that invites young readers to guess some of the unusual ways that animals get around.
Action is the name of the game, so Move!
Publishers Weekly
This spring, readers will find all sorts of companions to favorite books. With their usual spare text and dramatic mixed-media collage pairings, Steve Jenkins and Robin Page explore how various animals Move! PW wrote in a starred review of the duo's, I See a Kookaburra!, "Jenkins masterfully manipulates texture and space, playing up the unique palette and architecture of each habitat." Each spread fluidly segues to the next, as young readers watch a monkey "swing" into action on the first spread, then, on the succeeding spread, it perambulates opposite a striking-looking jacana that "walks on floating lily pads." The jacana's dive on the next spread introduces a blue whale, etc. Words describing movement appear in large black type. Copyright 2006 Reed Business Information.
