(4) K-3 Checkerboard: X-treme Sports series. The books in this series introduce the history, gear, lingo, and famous participants of these extreme sports. In straightforward text, fans get a general, but sometimes incomplete, idea of the sport while they view photographs of kids and adults competing. Safety is stressed throughout (although not always supported by the photos), and suggestions for getting started in the sport are briefly stated. Glos., ind. [Review covers these Checkerboard: X-treme Sports titles: Snowboarding, Windsurfing, In-line Skating, Rock Climbing, BMX Biking, and Skateboarding.]
