About the Author :
Sandra Will graduated magna cum laude from Barnard College, Columbia University with a B.A. degree in English Literature. An avid Yankees fan, Sandra's passion for baseball (and sports in general) stems from her grandfather, who was a professional baseball player in the 1920s and 1930s. Originally from Chehalis, Washington, Sandra lives in New York City.

Review :
These are fun, entertaining, and informative looks into a particular sport. Young sports fans will be thrilled with all the knowledge they can gain from these books. Teachers will also be pleased to have quality titles about such popular topics for children. Each book in the series has color photographs, an index, a glossary, and references, including Web sites. Each text has a very user-friendly format. There is a good balance of text and graphics, with numerous photographs of famous athletes, which children will love. Spread among the pates are textboxes and sidebars with interesting facts and information about each sport including the rules. Another fun feature is the "What Happened When?" timeline in the back of each book. The timelines include photographs, graphics, and important dates from the history of the sport. Elementary school students will enjoy reading the books and the series will reach reluctant readers. Also, the books are part of the Accelerated Reader program, which is a plus with many students, teachers, and library media specialists. This series is a must for the elementary sports collection.-- "Library Media Connection" These three books describe the basic rules, skills, and important people in their respective sports. Each one includes a time line and an interesting array of trivia facts. Font size is large enough for beginning readers, yet the sentence structure and vocabulary clearly elucidate without talking down to the intended audience. Pages are attractively laid out with colorful photos across the spreads. However, despite a young person on each cover, the illustrations in Football and Baseball show a preponderance of older male players, from high schoolers to professionals. Update your sports sections with these winners.-- "School Library Journal"
