" -- Bloomberg, "His writing is lively, humorous, and informative-just right to sustain kids' (or adults') interest...this is an excellent choice for anyone who is into sports." -- School Library Journal, "Although it is listed as juvenile nonfiction, this attractive and well-designed volume will appeal to a wide range of sports fans, not just young people." -- BookLoons.com, "It's an eclectic roundup that's likely to have readers mulling their own personal favorites." -- Publishers Weekly, "Do you have a friend who's not that into sports, but who still likes to be an informed person? Then you need to give him or her Len Berman's The Greatest Moments in Sports .

So what would you call the greatest moment in sports?" -- Examiner.com, "The book has all the components of a good non-fiction text. It has heading, captions, tables, the list goes on. There is also a CD that has recordings of some of the great moments. I imagine that when this goes in the new arrival basket it will quickly end up in a book bag." -- The Boy Reader, "This action-packed collection of statistics, photos and stories by the famous sportscaster, Len Berman, has something of interest for all sports fanatics, young and old." -- Shelf Talk-Seattle Public Library, "Young sports fans will appreciate "The Greatest Moments in Sports " by sportscaster Len Berman including the 1980 Olympic "Miracle on Ice" and a CD of actual broadcasts." -- Buffalo News
