From Booklist
Beckham gets an overview in this slim biography in the Amazing Athletes series. The book starts with Beckham’s first game for the L.A. Galaxy; that’s a bit awkward since he starts the game on the bench due to injury and ends it on the ground, “cut down by a sliding defender.” Oh, well, back to the past, where short chapters move quickly through Becks’ childhood, his early days in soccer that soon morph into superstardom, and the trades that brought him from the Manchester United team to Spain and then to the U.S. Readers will be attracted by the book’s colorful design, incorporating bright pages alternating with white ones, and the many crisp photos. There’s probably not enough detail here for serious soccer fans, even young ones; but children who want just the basics will find them here. A time line, glossary, bibliography, and Web sites are appended. Grades 3-5. --Ilene Cooper --This text refers to the Library Binding edition.
Product Description
Follow the life and career of one of soccer's most charismatic players, from his early life in England, to his historic play for Manchester United, to his arrival in America.
