Messi, Neymar & Suárez: The Barcelona Trio

64 pp. | Abbeville | September, 2016 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7892-1284-9 $13.95

(4) 4-6 World Soccer Legends series. Accentuated by eye-catching action photos, informative two-page spreads trace the spectacular rise of the hard-driving soccer trio known as "The Three Musketeers." The sometimes repetitive text nevertheless adequately follows the three stars' careers in Uruguay, Brazil, and Argentina before they played together in FC Barcelona in 2014; it also highlights their individual playing styles, stats, and personalities. Mostly for hard-core young soccer enthusiasts.
