Grade 4-7–These authors focus on factual details of teams and players around the world and provide significant biographical information on current and past stars. Moments highlights memorable events from the first World Cup in 1929 through the preparations for the 2010 games. Teams examines 11 organizations old and new, with charts displaying each one's record. The final chapter covers the United States. Legends and Superstars provide two or three pages of facts and a large colorful, action photograph per player. Three women are represented. A handy chart states each star's full name, country, date and place of birth, soccer position, and club. Tournaments details five of FIFA's six regional competitions designations–the African Cup of Nations, the Asian Cup, COPA América, the Gold Cup, and the UEFA championship–in a chapter each, but inexplicably there is only one sentence about the Oceanic Football Conference.
