YEAR IN SPORTS 2009 is heavily illustrated with Sports Illustrated's fabulous action photos. It will also feature an all-new 16-page, four-color insert that contains photos of the year's most thrilling moments and memorable athletes.
For each sport, kids will find a list of team names (or the top players), team stats, championship game summaries (i.e., what happened in Super Bowl XXXXII or the 2008 NBA play-offs?), records and milestones, award winners (i.e., who are the Cy Young Award winners of the last 10 years?), all-time stats, past champions, "Did You Know?" questions, great moments in sports, "Fast Facts," mini-bios of key personalities, and more.
This lively title offers kids quick, "cool" sports facts and isn't weighed down by lengthy blocks of texts. Just great information for sports fans of every age!
Great, But Not Entirely AccurateReviewed by J. Brown, 2009-09-17
My little brother loves this book, especially the NBA section as he's a B-ball fan. The problem is some of the numbers are off, and others are downright laughable. The book lists LeBron James as 6'5" for example in their 'Kobe vs. LeBron' op-ed. Overall an easy an engaging reference for kids though.

My 9 year old step-son loves this! He loves keeping up with all the current stuff but it's hard to do without a daily paper, so this book was perfect and a wonderful value. It was inexpensive and top quality! Can't go wrong it SIFK! Now he can reference this book whenever he needs!
New Look For SI KIDS' YearbookReviewed by Book Writer, 2008-12-29
I got this for Christmas and I will say it's definetly remade from the past years' yearbooks. It now has games and more analysis but It got rid of the team by team stats for each sport. It was more of a statbook and is more of like a handbook. It still carries records for each sports, and other things, but those( like me) who loved to see the stats for each MLB or NFL team they may be downright dissapointed. But those who like analysis and games and trivia they'd like it. I do like some of the new Features and it has more colorful photos of the star athletes. 4 stars!
Ok with my purchaseReviewed by Terese L. Derrico, 2008-12-03
This book is good and fine, but I am not sure that my son will enjoy it as much as I thought he would...
