Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

Gr. 2-4. The second entry in the Arthur Good Sports chapter-book series offers a warmhearted take on a common kids' problem--wanting to belong, especially in sports. Binky doesn't warm up enough before baseball practice, is injured, can't play, and feels isolated. Eventually, he works with the team to find a way to continue participating. Children, particularly those who are reluctant readers, may be drawn to the book by its association with Marc Brown's picture books and the Arthur television series. But it isn't Brown who is writing here, and Krensky's authorship, though acknowledged, is underplayed. Librarians may want to let kids know that this is fun but it isn't quite the "real deal."

    My grandson loved it because there was so much to learn. He learned about sportsmanship as well as preparing for a game as well as life. He is reading at last!!

    I just got this for my daughter from the library a few days ago. She's in 1st grade and read it in exactly 45 minutes. She did admit later that she didn't understand a few words, but she got the jist of the story. She has to read 2,000 minutes for school over the next few months and I have to log it all, so I was glad to find books slightly longer, but that also have pictures. The chapters are short and the font is a decent size so they don't spend too long on any one page and get bored. I love that this is a good series with a sports theme. My daughter is really in to sports so she can relate to these books well. It's also nice that Arthur is such a widely recognized and liked character by kids.
