Synopsis

Quick, name the world’s fastest animal! Did you say cheetah? If so, you’re right—sort of. Sure, the cheetah can reach speeds over 70 miles per hour (mph); but did you know that there is a species of bird that can fly faster than a race car? Did you know that that’s not even the fastest animal there is? This “dashing dozen” of nature’s speediest species examines the fastest on land, air, and sea.This story will resonate with children taking standardized tests…one size does not fit all!
