Animation in Cocos2D is handled by the CCAnimation class, you can read the documentation here:

http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/api-ref/latest-stable/interface_c_c_animation.html

There are a number of examples for animating sprites, using a Sprite Sheet, single Images, a Texture Cache, etc.

This is one of my favorite ones:
