School Library Journal - 11/01/2025 Gr 2–4—This series introduces readers to some Olympic winter sports, offering clear and accessible overviews of each one. The text explains the history of the sport in the Olympics, describes the different events within it, and outlines the equipment athletes use. Each volume also includes a spread spotlighting a prominent athlete in the field. Information is presented in short, engaging sections that give readers a solid sense of the sport without becoming overwhelming. Visually, the layout is modern and appealing, with large, color photos paired with a few sentences of text. Brief side notes provide additional interesting details about the sport, adding variety without cluttering the design. VERDICT A good choice for featuring lesser-covered sports and for young readers interested in the Winter Olympics. - Copyright 2025 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
