Through the waiting, the hatching, the first stroll, and the first swim, the father goose stands guard over his family, always ready to chase away danger with a loud Honk!

He and his boy have had a busy day full of running, splashing, leaping, and chasing, but it's hard for this little puppy to settle down. To the tune of the classic lullaby, the soothing rhythm of this bedtime story will calm any young creature feeling reluctant to say good-night to the day.

Some animals have only one home. They may travel just a few inches, yards, or miles from that spot. But others migrate great distances. They spend part of their time in one home and part of it in another. On the journey in between, they may swim, crawl, fly, or walk a mile, a thousand miles, or even halfway around the earth. April Pulley Sayre's lyrical text conveys the wonder that surrounds the mystery of migration. She writes about a variety of animals, from monarch butterflies to blue whales. With exquisite detail, the graceful illustrations by Alix Berenzy depict the animals on their journeys, and the book's last pages provide factual information about each animal's life and habits.
