Overview
Soar with geese. Float with spiderlings. Ride the jet stream with butterflies and other travelers who ride air currents to new places. In this lyrical nonfiction poem, readers will gain an appreciation for the forces of nature while learning how wind brings changes of weather, carries migrating animals, and helps spread seeds. Science-themed back matter compares distances that wind can carry things and includes an experiment about how seeds spread on the wind.Ginny Neil is an author, illustrator, award-winning teacher, and master naturalist. When she's not slogging through a marsh, trying to spot spring peepers or chasing errant sheep across mountains and meadows, she manages an outdoor learning lab, teaches STEM to elementary and middle school students, and writes about all the things and people that make Earth such a fun and fascinating place to live.
