Gr 3–5—These sports biographies are as stellar as the stars about whom they're written. Showcasing an array of diverse athletes, each book covers not only their athletic careers, but their early lives and hopes for the future as well. Readers will be inspired by all the obstacles these athletes have overcome, including Brenna Huckaby and Declan Farmer's surgeries and subsequent adaptation to prosthetic limbs and Simone Biles's early years spent in the foster care system. Most of the athletes, including BMX rider Chad Kerley, skateboarder Nyjah Huston, MLB player Mike Trout, NBA star Zion Williamson, and tennis pro Coco Gauff, have been training and competing since they were children, but readers will quickly notice the joy and enthusiasm they each maintain for their sport. Quotes from each athlete are included, giving readers a sense of personal connection with their sports heroes. VERDICT Well-written, inspiring, and informative, this series is a first purchase for most libraries.
