Full Text Reviews:
School Library Journal - 11/01/2025 Gr 3–5—These titles will get readers excited about women's sports by highlighting each sport's best games, teams, and players. Play-by-play accounts of dramatic moments and upsets make readers feel like they are part of the action, and the writing is strong enough to capture even those unfamiliar with the sport. The text is presented in short paragraphs with rectangular color photos of athletes and events set against multicolored backgrounds. The graphics are clear and effective, but it is the writing that truly makes the books stand out, pulling readers in with vivid descriptions of the action. Each entry includes a table of contents, a glossary, an index, and learn more section. VERDICT Highly recommended purchase for libraries seeking well-written introductions to women's sports. - Copyright 2025 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
