* Reviews *
This twenty-four-page biography about Derek Jeter, the New York Yankees shortstop will be enjoyed by beginning readers. The brief text describes the action in the accompanying photographs; Derek throws, Derek hits, and Derek makes the catch. Although the language is fairly basic, it does not make the story sound stilted. An index, words to know, further reading, and web resources, such as a site about Jeters stats and news (www.mlb.com) are included. This is the fourth early reader biography of Jeter since 2011 and is part of the I Like Sports Stars! series. If there is an audience for simple sports biographies, this will be a welcome addition., Children's Literature
