Danny Parr is a Capstone Press author.
Grade 2-5-Each book begins with some interesting background facts and has four brief chapters. No one will be able to learn how to do the moves from the sparse, often confusing text or from the few static photos-nor should anyone attempt to for safety's sake. And speaking of safety, several of the boarders/skaters shown in these titles are not wearing the suggested elbow or knee pads. For more extensive coverage of the sports, try George Sullivan's In-Line Skating: A Complete Guide for Beginners (Cobblehill, 1993), Aldie Chalmers's The Fantastic Book of In-Line Skating (Copper Beech, 1997), and Bill Gutman's Skateboarding (Tor, 1995). Better yet, encourage children to take lessons or find a video presentation.
