Shaun White (Amazing Athletes)

I bought this book for my 10 year old to use for his Biography Project on Shaun White. The book was perfect for this project because it gave him very specific information about Shaun White (dates, awards, etc.) in a format that was easy for him to read and enjoy at the same time. Not an easy feat for us! He was very successful not only on the project, but scored 100% on the AR test for the book afterwards because he was able to retain the information. P.S. Shipping was fast and timely!
