Pro Sports Biographies series.
Each slim biography briefly introduces the career and personal life of a sports superstar. Short, simple sentences and a large, uncaptioned color photo appear in every two-page chapter. Headers in oversize type, plenty of space between lines, and occasional fact boxes help early readers learn nonfiction text conventions, but fans of these athletes won't learn much about them. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these Pro Sports Biographies titles: Bryce Harper and Cam Newton.
