32 pp. | Little Simon | February, 2014 | Trade ISBN 978-1-4424-9353-7 $17.99 | Paper ISBN 978-1-4424-9326-1 $5.99 | Ebook ISBN 978-1-4424-9327-8
(3) K-3 Did You Know? series. Illustrated by Pete Oswald. Each volume presents select trivia about a variety of creatures. For example, the peregrine falcon is the fastest animal on earth, diving at two-hundred miles per hour (from Chickens); and ants take about 250 one-minute naps a day (from Hippos). While the cartoon illustrations make no attempt to be accurate, they add even more humor to these jocular, enjoyable collections. Review covers these Did You Know? titles: Chickens Don't Fly and Hippos Can't Swim.
