K-3SandCastle: Team Sports by the Numbers series.
In this unremarkable math-meets-sports series, each book's introduction shows how numbers are related to the title sport: e.g., "A basketball hoop is 10 feet (3 m) high." Basic facts and diagrams of the field, court, or rink are followed by "Offense" and "Defense" spreads in which stock photographs appear alongside brief, choppy sentences and very simple word problems. Glos. Review covers these SandCastle: Team Sports by the Numbers titles: Ice Hockey by the Numbers, Soccer by the Numbers, Volleyball by the Numbers, Baseball by the Numbers, Basketball by the Numbers, and Football by the Numbers.
