Nature puts on a dance recital in this beautiful nonfiction picture book from Caldecott Honor author-illustrator Robin Page, exploring how and why different animals move their bodies.

Cranes pirouette, scorpions tango, and seahorses twine in this ode to the amazing dance moves in the animal kingdom. Whether it’s to find a mate, repel a predator, or just for fun, readers will learn the purpose behind each creature’s graceful, exuberant, or playful moves. And they might even want to get up and join in the dancing fun!
