Illustrated by
Elsa Warnick.
This loosely organized, text-heavy book looks at the migration patterns of various animals, focusing on caribou, lemmings, polar bears, elephants, bison, and nomadic humans. The profiles often explain general life cycle information in greater detail than migration habits. Warnick's soft watercolor illustrations decorate the discussion and add some sense of progression to the narrative.
