Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
This series explores the history and impact of the World Cup over several volumes. All titles are organized chronologically. Three of the books focus on dramatic matches, standout players, and defining moments, placing readers directly in the action and making for an engaging read. World Cup Close-Up examines the planning, organization, and business side of the tournament, which may be less engaging for some readers. The writing is energetic, even in longer paragraph form. Large photographs, text boxes, and fast facts provide visual breaks for readers who benefit from shorter reading chunks. Each book includes a table of contents, a glossary, a list of additional resources, and an index. VERDICT Women's World Cup, Greatest Moments, and World Cup Heroes are highly recommended for libraries serving soccer fans, while World Cup Close-Up is an optional purchase.--Kate Rao, Willows Community School, CA "School Library Journal"
