Reviews
This set is similar to Moira Butterfield's "The Olympic" series (Sea-to-Sea, 2011) for the same age range, but the integration of information about the Paralympic Games is laudable. "High-Tech" offers something different by covering topics from new equipment such as fiberglass poles for vaulting to special shoes or uniforms and advances in training technology. "London" will become dated quickly. "World of Olympics" is organized by geographic areas and contains facts about the symbols of the Olympics. "Olympic Moments" delivers basic history, provides a map of all the cities that have hosted the games, and highlights interesting tidbits such as the story of the swimmer from Equitorial Guinea who was not used to swimming more than 50 meters in his homeland yet won his race by default after his competitors were disqualified for false starts. "Greatest Olympians" contains single-spread biographical overviews of famous stars as well as some lesser-known athletes, such as Steve Redgrave (rowing), Usain Bolt (track), and Chris Hoy (cycling). Each book has attractive color and archival photographs. If purchasing only one title to augment a collection, "High-Tech" is the one to select. - Blair Christolon, Prince William Public Library System, Manassas, VA School Library Journal January 2012 Issue, This up-to-date series, released just in time for the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, is a high-interest, informative set which focuses on several specific areas of the Games. All books have lots of fact boxes, and are filled with easy-to-understand facts and numerous photographs. The entire series presents a picture of the Summer Olympic Games, providing a lot of interesting information about these games and their history, including the Paralympics. In each title, issues and athletes from the different events are mentioned, with the most amazing and the most controversial of these being highlighted. Middle school students will enjoy the titles for browsing, for reading, and for research. Bibliography. Glossary. Websites. Table of Contents. Index.

    I'm so happy to have found this rare gem in your selection. It was wrapped carefully and arrived safely in a few days. The cookbook was impeccably described and all the pics showed a great amount of details. Considering how few of these are around the price was very reasonable. Thank you for the great service, I'm looking forward to finding more delightful treasures!
