(4) K-3 Blink of an Eye: Superfast Animals series. This book spotlights the peregrine falcon, "the fastest animal in the world." Very brief and selective information about the creature is provided (what it eats, where it lives, DDT survival) along with comparisons to other animals and inanimate objects (e.g., a roller coaster, a baseball). Vivid photos and sidebars in the shape of stopwatches emphasize the series' focus. Reading list. Glos., ind.
