librarybonanza 's review for:

Max The Champion by Sean Stockdale, Alexandra Strick, Ros Asquith
3.0

Age: Preschool-Kindergarten
Sports: All

An excellent book for the classroom that will provoke discussion about what it means to be athletic (passion vs. strength) with a very diverse cast of characters. At first, I was bothered by the boring, simple text but I appreciate its ability to open up dialogue about the complexity that is occurring in the large illustrations. This would also be an excellent book to use in a special education classroom.
