K-3Football Stars Up Close series.
Geared toward younger fans, large color photographs and simply structured texts provide brief introductions to three NFL standouts--Luck, Kaepernick, and Griffin--all team-leading quarterbacks. The adulatory books include early successes as well as obstacles overcome on the athletes' way to becoming fan favorites. Astroturf borders are a cheesy design touch. Reading list, timeline. Bib., glos., ind. Review covers these Football Stars Up Close titles: Andrew Luck, Colin Kaepernick, and Robert Griffin III.
