Tuktuk
As the sun begins to set, arctic animals scurry to prepare for six months of darkness and cold.

Living Things and Nonliving Things
"Using a wide variety of stunning photographs, author Kevin Kurtz poses thought-provoking questions to help readers determine if things are living or nonliving. For example, if most (but not all) living things can move, can any nonliving things move?
