Grade 4-8-Physically Challenged Athletes covers individuals who have overcome adversity to achieve their goals. Jim Abbott and Wilma Rudolph are among those included. Bloopers portrays figures who have not only experienced success in sports but also failure, such as Jose Canseco and Chris Webber. However, readers may question whether Tonya Harding's involvement in the Nancy Kerrigan attack or Mike Tyson's taking a bite out of Evander Holyfield's ear would be best described as "bloopers." Both books present some new information and include full-color photographs and chapter notes.
