COBBLESTONE Magazine is always a good sport about giving readers new perspectives into historical subjects, but this inventive edition looks at innovations in sports and games—from tennis to toe wrestling.
Starting with the first sports recorded around 776 B.C.E in Ancient Greece and traveling through time to looking at how we have revolutionized sports to be more inclusive, young readers will get a well-rounded deep dive into the history and evolution of athletics. Features include the history of basketball, the world of surfing (and snurfing), and the development of games that allow athletes with special needs to participate. And join in the games with activities that keep your young learners engaged while being educated.
