In the series of picture-book autobiographies published by Positively for Kids, however, top professional players underline the importance of character traits such as honesty and hard work as they tell how they have achieved success in sports. Co-written with Greg Brown, the books immediately capture readers' interest with their bold graphic design, fast-paced texts and abundant photographs showing the athletes as children and young adults. In each book, the athlete-author emphasizes a particular piece of advice, encapsulated in the title: Vince Carter: Choose Your Course; Brad Johnson: Play With Passion; Sue Bird: Be Yourself; Eric Gagne: Break Barriers; Tony Gonzalez: Catch and Connect. The players share stories of their childhood dreams and fears while explaining how they developed the skills that brought them fame. Aimed at ages 7-12, the books cost $15.95 each and conclude with a couple of pages of sports statistics, an index and related Web sites.
