Pro Football's Most Spectacular Quarterbacks

December 15, 2010
Grades 3-5 Rather than devoting each volume to an individual team and its history, the books in the Football-O-Rama series take a more holistic approach to the NFLs current powerhouse teams and players. While this wont help the books from becoming almost immediately dated like other pro sports books, it does make them stand apart in a crowded field (though fans of smaller-market teams may object to some of the choices). Pro Footballs Most Spectacular Quarterbacks returns to the signal-callers of those same four teams but also adds the likes of Brett Favre, Philip Rivers, and Aaron Rodgers, with single-page profiles and a small list of highlights for each. Crisp, full-bleed action photos add some zing, and a glossary and list of further resources round out each offering.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2010, American Library Association.)
