4 of 5 If your child loves sports! January 24, 2023
Reviewer: Samantha from New Jersey, USA  
What an awesome book. It is chock full of interesting sports and places I had never heard of before. This would be such a great book to pair with having students try some of the sports and then share what their experience was like.
