Make Me the Best Athlete

Get to know the top players in each sport and how they developed their amazing talents. Each chapter focuses on one player and a skill at which that player excels. Make Me the Best Athlete shows readers why these skills are important to their sports and how the players have demonstrated them. Step-by-step tutorials walk readers through drills that will help them compete just like their favorite athletes!

REVIEW:
Using famous athletes as examples, this series outlines drills to help tweens improve specific skills in a variety of popular sports. Titles single out aspects of the game that current athletes including hockey’s Sidney Crosby, soccer’s Lionel Messi, and football’s Aaron Rodgers perform with perfection. Asides call out additional outstanding players, past and present, for more insight into achieving sports greatness. Defensive and offensive aspects are covered, and no sport uses the same athlete twice (even Make Me the Best Hockey Player, which could use Wayne Gretzky for nearly everything), so readers will likely be introduced to stars with whom they are less familiar. When possible, a mix of male and female athletes are featured, providing balance. Colorful, well-placed photos and uncluttered organization will make this series a hit with many readers. This first purchase stands out from the crowd.
