Winter Sports Reads for Middle Grade Readers
If you’re like me, you’re enjoying every prime time Olympic event. If you have a sporty kid at home or perhaps a future Olympian, why not share these books with them to pique their interest? They’re short enough that even a choosy reader might be inclined to read about their favorite winter sport.
The sports covered in the collage are: Curling, Skiing, Figure Skating, and Snow Boarding.
What Olympic events are you enjoying?

Pam – stopping by to say hello pre A to Z Challenge. Nice blog! One of my favorite winter olympic sports to watch is curling.

THanks for visiting. Curling, huh? It’s interesting for sure!
Great idea Pam! Books are a great way to get kids interested in sports, especially those that don’t appear nightly on ESPN. I never aspired to be an Olympian but books and magazines like Sports Illustrated for Kids got me hooked on the games and athletes — and I’m still obsessed 20 years later.
I enjoy anything to do with skiing and hockey. Although it’s been fun watching the snowboarding. And yes, I’ve even watched some of the figure skating.
i was never coordinated enough to enjoy sports but I am an avid Olympic couch athlete!
