By organizing sports by the equipment used, Salzmann has developed a distinguished series about comparisons. Clear, colorful photographs provide excellent picture clues for the simple vocabulary, which not only labels the gear, but also relates a kernel of information about its use. . . . Salzmann often contributes appropriate information for this age group with an economy of words, such as “Ice hockey goalies wear two different gloves.” Each book concludes with a page of fun facts and a quiz. This set could be useful for beginning readers or as a conversation starter on similarities and differences for older ESL sports fans.
