Melisa Pilgrim in her book “Animal Motions” answers the question “what do humans and animals have in common.” Through the artwork of Ira V. Gates and her prose she shows kids how certain exercises they can do are similar to different animals. She shows hand motions to swim like a fish, how to stand tall like a giraffe, swing your arms like an elephant’s trunk, running in place like trotting horse, and on all fours like a cat or dog are some of the types of ways she teaches kids to be more healthy. “Animal Motions” is beneficial for both kids and adults.
