Readers are taken on a lovely journey following the life of an Arctic tern; from its birth in the Arctic, to its migration to the Antarctic as a youngster, to its return to the Arctic as an adult to begin its own family.
The text is pitched at two levels, with bold words highlighting the bird’s story for new readers, alongside more in-depth information about the life, habitat and behaviours of this bird. This will make a fabulous resource for group reading and adult-led discussions.
