(4) K-3 Super Sports Star series. Each of these superficial biographies presents an NFL star's accomplishments on the field.

(4) K-3 Super Sports Star series. Manning, quarterback for the Indianapolis Colts, has become one of the best quarterbacks in the National Football League since his debut with the NFL in 1998. This conversational biography covers Manning's high school, college, and professional career superficially, but it will probably appeal to young sports fans anyway. Color photos are included, but the design is uninteresting. Directory, reading list, stats, websites. Glos., ind.
