(4) 4-6 Women Who Win series. Each book in this generally adulatory series on female sports stars traces an athlete's career from childhood to the present. The texts touch on the stars' backgrounds and struggles to overcome obstacles but focus mainly on descriptions of important competitions. Color action photos lack variety, but a statistics list and chronology in each book will please fans. Bib., ind. [Review covers these titles: Gabrielle Reece, Anna Kournikova, Marion Jones, Laila Ali, Dorothy "Dot" Richardson, Lindsay Davenport.]
