Jake Maddox Sports Stories series.
Illustrated by
Aburtov.
These easy-to-read sports-centric stories concern themes of trust and ethics. The protagonists of both stories must balance their personal feelings and problems with the needs of each one's respective team if they all are to succeed together. The story lines are predictable, but expressive illustrations convey characters' emotions and add some depth to the situations. Discussion questions, writing prompts, and a soccer/baseball "Dictionary" are included. Glos. Review covers these Jake Maddox Sports Stories titles: Caught Stealing and Soccer Shake-Up.
