The formulaic trading card–like layout features one large action photo, a few adulatory paragraphs filled with impressive stats, and a quick "Did You Know?" sidebar showcasing interesting facts on each player (Derrick Rose was the youngest MVP in NBA history; Andrew McCutchen scored three home runs in one game). Reading list. Ind. Review covers these Sports Illustrated Kids: Legends in the Making titles: Basketball Legends in the Making and Baseball Legends in the Making.
