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

The hi-lo series continues with four more facile sports books, these all featuring girl protagonists: rhythmic gymnast Louie Lin (Balancing), softball catcher Rana Parisi (Softball), sports reporter Maya Esposito (Report), and ice-hockey player Alana O'Brien (STEAM). Each first-person narrative pulls readers through the activity's anxieties and thrills. Silly, juvenile cartoons feel mismatched with the straightforward middle-school sports stories.

Alana O'Brien can't wait to compete in her school's STEAM Expo. But with hockey tryouts and a family legacy to uphold, Alana will try any zany experiment she can think of to excel at the expo and on the ice. Will she create a winning invention, or will Alana realize that maybe she's already got everything she needs to succeed on her skates? Aligned to Common Core standards and correlated to state standards. Calico is an imprint of Magic Wagon, a division of ABDO.
