Klappentext

Some animals don't fight their predators--they run! Speed is a crucial adaptation for many creatures, including pronghorn, kangaroos, rhinos, and ostriches. They're not only fast, they're fast enough to outrun their predators. Readers will love reading about the swift animals in this book and how they thwart an attack. Key science concepts, such as adaptations and habitats, are clearly explained through engaging and accessible text. Stunning photographs of animals in the wild, a helpful graphic organizer, and fascinating fact boxes add more interest to an already high-interest topic.
