(4) K-3 Sports Illustrated Kids: Superstar Athletes series. Each book kicks off with an important game (2006 NBA finals in Wade; 2008's Super Bowl XLII in Manning) then looks back at the star player's early life and career. Some quotes from the players and many photos throughout add interest to the sometimes-sketchy texts (e.g., Scheff doesn't explain why, during the 2004 NFL draft, "Manning was unhappy. He didn't want to play for the Chargers"). Reading list, timeline. Glos., ind. Review covers these Sports Illustrated Kids: Superstar Athletes titles: Dwayne Wade and Eli Manning.
Reviewer: Elissa Gershowitz
