Although few animals other than polar bears and arctic foxes remain in the Arctic through the winter, they are joined by many other species that migrate to the region during the milder seasons. Whales travel from Mexican lagoons, cranes fly from China, caribou come from Canada, and terns begin their migration in far-away Antarctica. Lyrical language and sweeping vistas captured in icy-toned, realistic illustrations celebrate the diversity of creatures making the journey north each year. A map of the Arctic and a page of information about the region conclude this handsome, generously-sized volume. (Ages 5–10)
