Editorial Reviews

Gr 4–8—Athletes put in lifetimes of work to make it to the big games described in this thorough series. While readers will be familiar with the championship games, they will learn the origins as well as the stories of legendary games and players in the NBA Finals, Super Bowl, and World Series. FIFA World Cup and Tennis Grand Slam provide balanced coverage of male-identifying and female-identifying athletes. The unique standout of the series is Triple Crown, as few children follow horse racing. Throughout the narratives, vocabulary terms are highlighted in a different color. Though sometimes they are left to be defined in the glossary, at other times they are defined immediately after first use. Photos of past stars, like Michael Jordan in the NBA Finals, always include small additional descriptions of their accomplishments. While the writing is uninspired, the content is comprehensive, making it a suitable resource for researchers. VERDICT Cherry-pick this series.
