ALA Booklist (Fri Oct 04 00:00:00 CDT 2024)

In a world of divisiveness, fake news, and social media overload, it's never too early for children to develop critical-thinking skills, and the Points of View series (6 new titles) makes it easy with explorations of timely and relevant societal debates. Using objective yet upbeat text and numerous stock photos, each book begins with an introduction to the debate and some basic background information before explaining multiple sides of the controversy. Do Professional Athletes Make Too Much Money? discusses such issues as the value of sports versus other professions, the average career span of professional athletes, and how much money athletes bring in for their team as a whole. Fact boxes throughout and a concluding yes-or-no chart help young readers form their own opinions, and together, the volumes extend learning and real-world connections.

Professional athletes are often paid millions of dollars. Many sports fans believe athletes deserve to make a lot of money because they have special skills, make money for their teams and for the cities they play in by attracting fans, and often have short careers and deal with serious injuries. Others, however, believe they make too much money for playing a game and workers such as teachers should make more than athletes. Readers are invited to form their own opinion on this issue as they explore the accessible text, fact boxes, and a helpful graphic organizer.
