Description

Through simple text and illustrations, emergent readers are introduced to lacrosse.

Quick Summary

If you're looking for a super easy intro to lacrosse for an early reader, Nick Rebman's "Lacrosse" does the trick. The bright, clear pictures pair with short sentences that show kids throwing, catching, and scooping the ball with a stick, giving a friendly picture-guide feel rather than a textbook. It's perfect for kids who are just starting to read on their own and love sports, especially those who might be intimidated by longer books, because the whole thing can be finished in a few minutes. Parents will appreciate that there's nothing scary or overly competitive just the basics of how the game works and why it's fun, and the half-point AR rating makes it a quick win for reluctant readers. If your child enjoys this one, they might also like the similar Rookie Read-About Sports series on soccer or basketball, which follow the same friendly, simple format.
