The fourteen animals depicted in Who’s Faster? span a range of speeds, from the slow crawl of a sloth to the full gallop of a giraffe to the breakneck blur of the fastest animal in the world. With lyrical words, author Eileen Meyer describes each animal’s movement and then asks readers, “Who’s faster?” Kids will keep turning the pages until they find out who’s fastest. Beautiful watercolors by award-winning illustrator Constance Bergum capture each animal’s graceful movement and include intricate details of hoofs, whiskers, fins, and feathers. An appendix provides more information about the animals in the book as well as facts about speed.
