"Profiles in Sports Courage" by Ken Rappoport

Review:  “Profiles in Sports Courage” by Ken Rappoport gives short glimpses into the lives of some very well known as well as some lesser known athletes.  Each chapter captures a moment in the history of sports and gives insight into the lives of the athletes including obstacles that they needed to overcome in order to achieve their success.

The author uses language that is easy to read yet intriguing to draw the reader in and maintain their interest in each athlete’s story.  This book is a good read for boys or girls interested in sports.  The information is perfect for students that are learning to write their first book reports.   I would recommend this for young readers from third grade up through junior high.  (rev.
