How Does it Move?

This book is suitable for ages 6 to 8 years. Sunflowers turn their heads to face sunlight, some plants close their flowers at night, and others move their heads to trap insects.

Vines creep up the sides of trees or buildings, and some trees shoot down roots from seeds that grow above the ground.

Animals also move in many ways. Animals with limbs walk, run, hop, leap, climb, dance, and crawl.

Animals with wings fly, flap, soar, and glide. Animals that live in water swim, hover, dive, leap, porpoise, and breach.

Young readers will become aware of the different ways in which plants and animals move, as well as learn new vocabulary about movement through questions and activities.
