Grade 4-8 --Emphasis on safety and lots of good, basic "how-to" information make these titles ideal for those with an incipient interest in the topics. Attractive layouts with ample white space combine good quality, full-color photographs and drawings that are sure to appeal to young enthusiasts; browsers will learn much from the captioned pictures. However, difficult prose may discourage some potential readers. Skiing and Snow Sports covers downhill and cross-county skiing (equipment, basics, and other practical information), competitive skiing (with an emphasis on European competitions), snowboarding, sleighing, and photographing snow sports. Trail Bikes and Motorcross covers off-road machines, trail-bike riding, competitions (with a European emphasis), and also includes a section on photographing the sport. Clear, informative introductions to exciting sports. --Susan H. Williamson, Homer-Center School District, PA
