Question:　 Why do geese fly in a V formation?

Answer:　 They provide lift to one another to save energy and it's easier to keep track of every bird in the flock.

Based on the teamwork of real geese, Lift is an inspirational verse highlighting a gosling's first flight.　 It echoes the concerns of parents when their child embarks upon a new task for the first time, and offers reassurance that others are there to provide "lift" when they need help.　 In turn, the gosling learns to extend that help to others.　 There are many lessons about community and teamwork to be learned through this simple, yet profound journey.　 People of all ages love to watch geese, but few know of their instinctive loyalty to the flock.　 To complement the verse, a "Facts About Geese" section at the end of the book provides the reader with interesting information about these beautiful birds.
