What's Everybuggy Reading: Sam

Do Lobsters Leap Waterfalls?

by Laura Purdie Salas

Picture Window Books, 2007

In this month’s Spider, you read about a boy who goes lobstering with his dad in “Lobster Bait.” Aren’t lobsters cool? You know, lobsters don’t always stay in the same place. Sometimes they move to deeper waters to escape dangerous storms. But how do they get there? Do they leap waterfalls? Nope!

In this book, you’ll find out about all types of animal migration. I learned that wildebeests run across the African plains in search of greener grass, and that terns (a type of bird) fly all the way around the world, chasing the summer weather. You’ll be able to impress your friends with all the cool migration facts you learn in this book. You can even quiz your mom or dad for Mother’s or Father’s Day (Thistle told me that’s an important part of How To Raise Mom and Dad). Oh, and if you want to know how lobsters migrate, you’ll have to wait until the very last page!
