Gr 4–6—Readers will get up-close and personal with some successful teams in this high-quality series. Each book begins with a play-by-play of the final few moments of a recent, franchise-defining game before transitioning to the team's origin story. Amazing moments, described with exciting sports writing, and big superstars, such as Bill Russell and Larry Bird of the Boston Celtics, demonstrate some of the greatest achievements for the storied squads. After sharing the accomplishments and stats of each team's most decorated past athletes, the books end with high hopes for the future, name-dropping current dynamic players who hope to create new dynasties. Interesting details fill the well-written and thoroughly researched books with plenty of fodder for reports, such as how the Seattle Storm play their home games in Climate Pledge Arena, the first pro sports venue powered exclusively by wind and solar energy. VERDICT Especially if these teams are in your area, you'll want these titles handy.
