Gr 7 Up—Supplemented by video clips (through QR codes), these books create an interactive learning environment teens will appreciate. Each book follows the same information-packed format. Beginning with a highlight reel of the greatest moments in the topic sport, each title goes on to explore the origin, evolution, and future of it along with portraits of contemporary and all-star players. Each chapter ends with text-dependent questions and research opportunities to deepen readers' understanding of the material. Extreme Sports notably includes a segment about the biological effect of extreme sports on the brain—the release of dopamine and adrenaline pushing athletes to want more danger.
