Lessons In Sportsmanship

The Sports Illustrated for Kids Graphic Novels is a great series for teaching children in grades 2 to 6 about the positive effects of good sportsmanship. The large picture frames display action and the short text encourages reading among reluctant readers. The fast pace and low vocabulary while teaching team building, fairness, and sportsmanship make a great fit.  Have your favorite young athlete try one today!
