"These short books will appeal to a wide variety of readers. Sports Top Tens includes Olympic medalists, women basketball players and runners, male swimmers, and NFL quarterbacks. Movies and TV Top Tens includes well-known TV programs, movies, and actors. The books have small, approachable blocks of text, and attractive color photographs. Readers are invited to create their own 'top 10' lists by considering their personal interests and what facts or data they could use to determine what belongs on their lists. The Common Core State Standards require that students back up their statements by pointing to evidence, and these books demonstrate that skill in a fun way with enjoyable topics."--School Library Connection
--Journal"Fans of lists, particularly those of the top 10 variety, will appreciate these slim entries to the field of pop culture record-holders. Four major subjects--movies and television, music and theater, sports, and technology--are represented in this series, and within each volume, there are five lists that document the top record holders for such standard fare as 'Highest-Earning Movies of All Time' (Movies and TV Top Tens) as well as quirkier, unexpected categories ('Highest Scorers in the WNBA' in Sports Top Tens). Donovan explains the criteria she used when ranking the items in each list, using facts and statistics to make the determinations. While current at the time of publication, some data has changed in the time since, affecting the currency and validity of her lists. For instance, Katy Perry has surpassed Taylor Swift for the number one spot on the 'Musicians with the Most Digital Singles Sales' list, according to the Recording Industry Association of America. Although the titles don't contain a ton of material, the aim isn't to be a comprehensive reference tool. Instead, these are springboards for readers to create their own top 10 lists. Suggested topics and print and online resources are provided to help guide the audience through the process. Give this to young enthusiasts of the 'Guinness World Record' books." --School Library Journal
