“Grades 2-5 - This breezy look into the world of gymnastics is part of the Deportes olímpicos de verano series (6 titles), also available in English (the Summer Olympics Sports series). It is most suitable for confident Spanish-language readers, with its higher-level Spanish vocabulary that describes gymnastics equipment, rules, and history, including the sport's early beginnings in the Olympics. This book includes vivid photographs of athletes of a variety of races and nationalities in action during their Olympic presentations. Men’s and women’s individual events are briefly described, as are rhythmic gymnastics and trampoline. Occasional reader-directed questions (with answers printed on the facing page) foster increased engagement with the text. Boldfaced words are defined in a glossary that shares a spread with suggested reading and websites for kids wanting to know more. ”
