Move! by Steve Jenkins & Robin Page

Fish gotta swim, birds gotta fly, but the husband-wife illustrator-writer team of Jenkins and Page covers many more exotic forms of animal locomotion in this visually stunning book. Slither, for example (a snake through rustling leaves). Or swing (a gibbon through jungle trees). Or waddle (a penguin with its colony). Each variation is neatly linked with the succeeding one, and all come vibrantly alive in Jenkins' paper-cut illustrations. For more about the animals, curious kids can leap, dive, slide, dance or float (to cite some of the book's other types of movement) to the back pages.
