My nephew enjoys riding his bike, scooter, skate boarding and roller blading. I think most boys his age do. He’s also a big fan of the X-Games and the extreme sports, so he knows who Bruce Cook and Travis Pastrana are. If you have a child in your family who’s a fan I think they will love these 2 books from the Ripley Readers series. They’re Level 3 Books for children who are in grades 1 through 3. Perfect for kids who are beginning to read on their own.

Two weeks ago I received these two books published by Ripley’s Believe It or Not and gave them to my nephew. Within 1 minute he was flipping through the pages and reading the books. Matter of fact, he sat in my over-sized beanbag chair for 90 minutes reading the two books and was totally engulfed in them.

I do not know much about Ripley readers. These books sound very good for beginning readers.
I love all Ripley Readers. they are good for the children and it makes them want to read.
These look like great books to get kids reading. I’m looking forward to seeing the new Cirque du Solei that has these bikes in it.
If my nephew was just a little older I would get this for him. I won a Ripley book several years ago and my brother(65) was here when it was delivered. I opened the package and showed him what it was. He took it out of my hands and when he left he took it with him. So Ripley book are popular with all ages
