Synopsis :

Eye-catching, informative, and offering hours of fun, On the Move is the perfect nonfiction book about motion in all its forms from a pair of Ukraine's leading contemporary artists.

When was the first shoe invented? What's the longest distance an animal has ever traveled? How does time travel work? All these questions--and more!--are answered in On the Move, a dazzling illustrated book that explores movement through a variety of lenses, from geography to anthropology, tourism, adventuring, physics, and everything in between.

Perfect for children and parents, teachers and librarians, and anyone curious to learn about the way things work, On the Move is brimming with fascinating facts and thought-provoking reflections about how people, animals, and the elements move around, both throughout history and to this day. It's also an excellent book for artists and designers who are interested in composition and the spatial arrangement of information--with bold graphic design and vivid Pantone colors that burst off the page!
