From School Library Journal
Grade 4-8-Clear, full-color photos place this instruction manual a notch above the others available. Queen covers the basics of karate, explaining kicks, blocks, punches, and stances-many techniques that also overlap into other martial arts. Mostly young students are shown throughout; the pictures assist readers in learning everything from how to tie their belts correctly to how to do a roundhouse kick. Small-scale, black-ink diagrams help students place their feet in the proper stance, and additional tips on stretches, meditation, safety, equipment, and sparring round out the manual. Sparring in tournaments or forms competitions is also covered. There's little here on the history of martial arts or the variety of other self-defense methods that exist, but for self-instruction, or as an adjunct to karate classes, this book will do the trick.
