3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting, but above a 9 year old's head.., January 17, 2011

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I purchased this for my 10 year-old tomboy cousin who loves sports but isn't a big reader; my goal being, of course, to try and entice her to read by reeling her in with a subject I thought she'd be interested in.

When the book arrived, I thumbed through it and seriously contemplated adding it to my classroom library (high school students grades 9-12) instead. Some of the pages are colored (lavender, off-white), but despite that are pretty bland and uninteresting looking. It definitely was much less captivating than I thought it would be. It DID have a lot of interesting facts in it..

Additionally, even though it is listed as being appropriate for ages 9-12, I think it would be more appropriate for middle schoolers through early high school. It's really more of a reference than a book one would read cover-to-cover.
