Book Review: Women Athletes Who Rule! ~ Summer Reading Series Post #1

My boys are already looking for books to read for summer reading. My son Aaron who plays soccer loves reading about sports and anything that has to do with athletes. When we received the Women Athletes Who Rule! book I wasn’t sure if he would read it. I thought that because it was about women athletes he wouldn’t want to, but I was mistaken. He said anything about sports or any athletes was great. He said he was sure he would like it since it’s a Sports Illustrated Kids book. He immediately took the book and was thrilled with it. He has only put it down to do homework, play soccer, sleep, and go to school.

I had to wait until he left for school the next day to be able to take a look through it and take pictures.

This book is really fun, full of great facts and pictures. It’s full of great athletes throughout history.

I was really impressed by this book and like it just as much as Aaron did. This would make a great book for summer reading.

You can find this great book on Amazon.

Product Description

Inspirational and aspirational. Fearless and phenomenal. The 101 women athletes every fan needs to know!

The fifth book in the Big Book of Who series from Sports Illustrated Kids profiles extraordinary athletes who shaped the narratives of their sports. The best women athletes—past and present—including Billie Jean King, Serena Williams, Nadia Comaneci, Simone Biles, and dozens more are grouped into these categories: Superstars who reinvented what it means to be a sports celebrity, Wonder Women who transcend sports and created seismic shifts in our culture, Trail Blazers who broke barriers and paved the way for others to follow, Record Breakers who set new standards for excellence, and the Champions who showed heart and gumption as winners. All of their stories bring excellence in women’s sports to readers hungry for empowering stories for kids—girls and boys alike.
