Carefully leveled text and vibrant photos engage young readers in learning about the basics of the sport of baseball. Age-appropriate critical thinking questions and a photo glossary help build nonfiction learning skills.
Bright, action-packed photos and simple text make this a dynamite choice for beginning readers. More detailed and informative than similar series, these books explain basic rules for each of the sports discussed. While the information is not detailed enough to allow immediate mastery, the specifics discussed offer a nice introduction for kids who are thinking of trying a new sport. Critical thinking questions throughout allow students to think about and apply what they've read. The sports covered are all popular enough to have a built-in audience, and the diversity of kids included in the pictures will make parents and teachers happy. VERDICT: First-round draft picks with crowd-pleasing potential.
