Reviews
"The succinct writing is engaging and good for browsers . . . a good series for having a little bit on your shelves about a lot of players."--School Library Journal, "It's one thing to be good at sports, but being a G.O.A.T. signals athleticism at another level. The Greatest of All Time Players series identifies professional athletes who have achieved this distinction. Each volume starts with a brief story of a G.O.A.T. in action, a short explanation of the player's position, and quick facts related to the position. The accessible text transitions to profiles of the position's top-10 athletes, with each profile offering an overview of the player's record-breaking career and stats. G.O.A.T. Basketball Point Guards includes both NBA and WNBA athletes and emphasizes how these players are some of the smartest and most adaptable on the court. G.O.A.T. Basketball Power Forwards looks at some of the biggest and most-skilled players in both the NBA and WNBA. G.O.A.T. Football Linebackers spotlights the importance of this position in a football team's defense. G.O.A.T. Football Quarterbacks describes how a quarterback is 'the captain of the offense' on a football team. Because it's hard to select just 10 greatest players, a list of 10 more exceptional athletes follows. Each book concludes by tasking readers with creating their own G.O.A.T. list. Colorful backgrounds and large photos of the athletes at play make this series great, indeed."--Booklist, "Colorful backgrounds and large photos of the athletes at play make this series great, indeed."--Booklist, "These books feature similar countdown list formats, leading readers through the top 10 G.O.A.T.s for their positions. After a quick description of the qualities an athlete must possess to excel, Lowe launches into the lists, providing a two-page mini-biography for each star. Readers will appreciate that the lists include both 'legacy' and contemporary athletes, like Charles Barkley and Giannis Antetokounmpo in G.O.A.T. Power Forwards. The basketball books notably include athletes who identify as male and female. All the books in the series conclude with 'Even More G.O.A.T.s' lists of exceptional players and 'Your G.O.A.T.' sections, which encourage readers to make their own top 10 lists using solid reasoning for placements. The succinct writing is engaging and good for browsers, but lacks depth for rabid researchers. Overall, it's a good series for having a little bit on your shelves about a lot of players. VERDICT A fun, though not necessary purchase."--School Library Journal, "The illustrated "Greatest of All Time" series offers readers with an interest in professional sports an opportunity to learn more about some of the finest athletes of all time. Each title in the series focuses on a particular position and then offers readers mini-biographies of the top ten players to fulfill that role during their careers. In this way, young sports fans can learn about the top ten football, baseball, soccer or basketball players who played a specific position on their team. Each book is filled with statistics, profiles, and biographical information about some of the finest professional athletes ever to play their chosen sports. This selection focuses on one of football's most aggressive positions: linebackers. Linebackers are part of the frontline of any football team's defense. Inside linebackers are part of a team's central defense and are often charged with stopping running plays. Outside linebackers sometimes rush the opposing quarterback and must also cover receivers who are attempting to catch passes. Linebackers must combine strength, speed, and quick wits as they try to stop their opponents from making yardage or scoring touchdowns. In this concise look at National Football League (NFL) linebackers, readers will be introduced to ten of the most efficient players ever to fill that valued position. In Ray Lewis of the Baltimore Ravens, readers will meet a man who was among the most feared tacklers of his era. Dick Butkus and Mike Singletary of the Chicago Bears both played at a high level and led their defenses to be among the greatest of all time. Derrick Thomas of the Kansas City Chiefs was so fast that he could easily cover pass receivers while always being a threat to blitz opposing quarterbacks. Jack Lambert of the Pittsburgh Steelers was a feared tackler who helped his team win four Super Bowls in six years. But it is Lawrence Taylor of the New York Giants that heads this list of all-time linebackers, primarily because of his uncanny ability to sack quarterbacks or catch running backs from behind. In addition to the top ten list, author Lowe provides an honorable mention list of ten additional star linebackers who played at a very high level in the NFL. Readers will also find additional resources for further study of the men who have been leaders in this violent position. Young sports enthusiasts will enjoy this look back at some of the players who became among the most feared and inspiring linebackers ever to participate in the NFL.
