The Karate Way

32 pp. | Doubleday | April, 2001 | Trade ISBN 0-385-32742-0 $$12.95
(4) K-3 Reluctant at first, a boy agrees to try karate and finds he enjoys it. He describes some of the conventions of the sport (including special vocabulary, exercises, and the belt system) and how karate improves his confidence and grades. The boy's transformation is well portrayed, and though amateurish, the unpretentious pen-and-ink illustrations have energy and a naive charm. Glos.
Reviewer: Anita L. Burkam
