Biggest, Strongest, Fastest by Steve Jenkins

Caldecott Medal winner Steve Jenkins explores the world's largest, slowest, and longest-lived creatures in this informational picture book that proves science can be a whole lot of fun.

What is the biggest land animal? What animal runs the fastest? Can elephants really eat more than 300 pounds of grass each day?

Dive into this fascinating book that introduces fourteen members of the animal kingdom who hold "world records" for their astonishing traits. Young readers will find easy-to-understand comparisons, helpful charts, and a guide to where these amazing animals can be found in the wild.

Made with his award-winning cut-page collage illustrations, this educational and entertaining book from Steve Jenkins brings the fascinating facts about our natural world alive.
