Review

In this series of books, Soccer Star, Torres writes about Cristiano Ronaldo from Portugal.

The book begins with a chapter of major accomplishments and then launches into a more chronological view of his life, starting with his childhood. Beginning the book this way does capture the reader's attention and will propel the reader into the rest of his life. Well captioned, full page photographs highlight the player's skills and major moments in his career.

This series is sure to be a solid choice for soccer fans and fills a much needed gap in library sports sections. Shelve in Biography or 793.33 with soccer. A must have for a well rounded sports collection for late elementary school and early middle school readers.

Overall Book Score: very good
