Books in this series are geared toward beginning independent readers. Filled with bright -pictures, these books present brief introductions and overviews of action sports. The use of large type, short sentences, and sufficient white space enables the early reader to enjoy the text. Ending each book is a list for further knowledge, both in print and electronic, and a suggestion of a way to search the publisher’s Web site for more information. A useful addition to any classroom or school media library that serves a large male population, these books will introduce action sports in a safety oriented, yet entertaining way. Each book begins with the excitement, followed by a definition of the particular action-sport, followed by the equipment, and the sport “in action.” The durable binding will withstand large library usage, adding to the nonfiction collection of any library serving the younger members of the population. Older readers will also appreciate the pictures and fast facts sprinkled liberally throughout the text. Glossary. Table of Contents. Index. Recommended.
