Horn Book (Wed Aug 01 00:00:00 CDT 2018)

These sports-themed stories starring girls highlight important skills necessary for success at a skate park (Longboard), a ranch (Cowgirl), on the ice (Ice Rink), and with the cheer squad (Squad). Fast pacing and black-and-white digital illustrations keep the predictable plots focused and easy to follow. Discussion questions, writing prompts, and facts about the sports are appended. Glos.

Sydney Todachine is stuck at her grandfather's ranch for the summer, and she's feeling out of place. So when Sydney bonds with a beautiful horse, she decides to ride in secret rather than risk embarrassing herself in front of the experienced cowboys and cowgirls. But as rider and horse practice pole bending, will Sydney find the courage to face her fears and compete in the upcoming rodeo? Each book in Jake Maddox Girl Sports Stories features easy-to-read text, fast-paced action, plus back matter support materials to make it a winning read.
