My eighth grade language arts class contains a mix of English language learners, special ed kids and "regular" kids. We start every day with silent sustained reading, where kids read a book of their choice for 15 minutes. I ordered this book for a particular student who is on the football team, loves football, but struggles with reading. I have other DK books on other topics, and find them to be accessible, and informative. There is text, but in small chunks, and the illustrations support it very well. For someone who has a lot of background knowledge about football, but can't read well, this makes great reading practice. I bought this for one particular kid, but it hasn't stayed on the shelf at all- other kids in the class pull it off the shelf daily. DK has built a niche with accessible non-fiction books for all age groups.

As a former children's librarian, I found out that elementary school age boys love this type of book. So, it was my choice for our own little one. Eyewitness does a great job.

My son (4.5) recenly got excited about football. This book is excellent for providing him with all the basic facts about the game--from its historic origins and development over time, to the role of the uniforms, helmets, coaches' responsibilities, etc. Must admit that it helped me as well to become at least a little literate in my son's latest obsession.
As in all Eyewitness books, it is structured in "chapters" detailing one aspect of the game. Good quality pictures and clear captions further help the kids understand the game.

Rollers from Abdun

This book is generally good. However, it missed one very important part. It failed to introduce the different players in the game. For a person who knows nothing about this sport, s/he would be very confused when the author starts to talk about line back, quarter back, etc.
It definitely should have a chapter to explain all those different names for the players.
Also there was one minor wording problem, I think. On page 31, it has "a tube not unlike a lipstick." What does it mean "not unlike?" I think that he can choose a better word for that.
