Going Home, The Mystery of Animal Migration

Available March 2010, Dawn Publications

This book has already received two wonderful endorsements:

"The wonders of animal migration will captivate young readers as they read about tiny hummingbirds that fly across the Gulf of Mexico, sea turtles that return to a special beach after years at sea, and other amazing feats. Children will be caught up in the mysteries of these animal navigators, presented clearly and accurately." — Professor James L. Gould, Princeton University, and Dr. Carol Grant Gould, co-authors of the Animal Mind and other animal behavior books.

"We all see animals for a season or two, perhaps in our own backyard, and then they're gone. We don't think of where they came from or where they go. This book, with its magical poetry, beautiful illustrations, and enlightening information will give children a new appreciation of these animals and their amazing journeys."
— Don Salvatore, Science Educator at the Museum of Science, Boston, and author, Backyard Biology Web Site
