The Planet's Most Extreme - Speed

Book Description
A hare running at full throttle would be able to keep pace with the horses running in the Kentucky Derby, and ostriches can run at speeds double those of the fastest Olympic sprinters! But neither the hare nor the ostrich comes in at number one in this countdown. Find out who does, and how well humans can keep up with the planet's most extreme movers.
