Product Description

This exciting sports almanac will tell kids everything they want and need to know about the previous year in sports (Fall '06 through Summer '07). It includes major sports (basketball, baseball, football, hockey); "secondary sports" (golf, tennis, cycling, auto racing); and action sports (BMX, snowboarding, in-line skating).

YEAR IN SPORTS 2008 is heavily illustrated with Sports Illustrated's fabulous action photos. It will also feature an all-new 16-page, four-color insert that contains photos of the year's most thrilling moments and memorable athletes.

For each sport, kids will find a list of team names (or the top players), team stats, championship game summaries (i.e., what happened in Super Bowl XXXXI or the 2007 NBA playoffs?), records and milestones, award winners (i.e., who are the Cy Young Award winners of the last 10 years?), all-time stats, past champions, "Did You Know?" questions, great moments in the sports, "Fast Facts," minibios of key personalities, and more.

This lively title offers kids quick, "cool" sports facts and isn't weighed down by lengthy blocks of texts. Just great information for sports fans of every age!

Customer Reviews

Great book for boys!5
This Sports Illustrated book has been a hit for our son. He is more and more interested in sports, and the book encourages his reading in an engaging way.

Great sports reading for young teens5
This book is a favorite with my 13-yr old nephew who's just beginning to play team sports himself, but loves to watch and read about them. We gave him Sports Illustrated for Kids in addition to this book and he loves it all. Great gift idea!

Not what I expected1
This book had a lot of sports statistics but was not full of any photos or other interesting facts for a child. I was really embarrassed to give it to my nephew
