(2) K-3 Illustrated by Mia Posada. The bar-tailed godwit is a shorebird with residences in Alaska and New Zealand. Brief text conveys information about godwit behaviors as they learn to fly, forage, and eat the enormous amount of food needed to fuel the journey. Creative paper-collage illustrations capture the fuzzy down of newborn chicks and the starry nights of flying. A list of resources is provided.
