Jenkins, Steve Speediest! 19 Very Fast Animals PICTURE BOOK/NON-FICTION Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2018. $15.
9780544937109
Nineteen different animals
are featured in this book that concentrates on what makes the animals speedy. Some of the animals are the fastest runners—cheetahs;
some are the fastest fliers-peregrine falcon; the fastest fish-sailfish. Insects, birds, snakes and animals are speedy
either because they are the fastest of their kind or fastest compared to their
size.
I love this series about extreme
animals. The illustrations are unique
and well done. There are different facts,
a comparison to the size of a human and a map to show where they live. These
are great for young readers because they don’t give too much info, they are visually
appealing and it concentrates on the interesting.
