Kid Athletes: True Tales of Childhood from Sports Legends (Kid Legends)

These are great stories for all ages. My son wants me to read him a chapter every night. We are almost through and I know we will be rereading in the future! Highly recommend.

My daughter loved this book, she is a sport lover so she enjoys too much learning about sport figures, eventhough some of them are a little older for her, and are beyond my generation and are now "legends". But in general she learned a lot and there is a wide selection of sports and athletes, unfortunately almost are every of them are from the USA, with the exception of Messi and one chinesse basketball player.

I’m a teacher and tutor and I love this book! Kids love it, the stories are short with great messages and the illustrations are cool. I’ve bought this book so many times and given it away to kids because they’ve loved it so much. Kids in grades 3-6 love it!

My 10 year old does not like to read, especially fiction. He likes sports and graphic novels, so I thought I would try this. I have caught him more than once sneaking this book past his bedtime. Alright with me!!!

I am a fourth grade teacher. This book has been like gold in my classroom this year. It has been passed from one student to the next, and each student has loved it. I have a student that cannot get through more than a few pages in a book before he gets "bored," and he couldn't put this book down. Highly recommend!

This book was especially amazing because of its short but detailed passages about all of these future amazing athletes. If you haven't read this book yet it is great and it won't let you down! Also read "Kid Presidents" this book is also awesome and has short but detailed passages about all of these future presidents. My favorite story from the "Kid Athletes" book was Tiger Woods and his distracting dad. Make sure to read this book! #[email protected]

this is a great book for a young sports fan -- and for parents. these are the unknown stories of famous athletes, and the struggles that kids and parents alike can really appreciate it. looking forward to reading more books in this series.

This book was an amazing find. I am always looking for good nonfiction books to read with my third graders who are LD. It can be hard to find nonfiction that is engaging but not too hard to read. This book is so interesting and is a good reading level. The chapters are several pages - not too long or short. The athletes included are diverse, which is really refreshing. Highly recommended.

We love these books! The illustrations and the variety of stories chosen are both amazing, great quality books for children 6+

ES UN Excelente libro para niños y jóvenes. Súper fácil de leer. Nos encanto.
