http://www.marioclub.net/reviews/thps.shtml

Extractions: If you have ever played Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 for the Game Boy Color you have good reason to doubt whether this game is good or not. All early-generation and handheld skateboarding games played like Skate or Die or but Tony Hawk 2 for the Game Boy Advance is a huge step forward not only for skateboarding games, in general, but for the soon-to-be released handheld system, the Game Boy Advance. Tony Hawk has displayed the greatest graphical presentation available on the GBA; the engine really pushes its limitations. Packed with characters modeled to resemble real-life riders' proportions (some taken straight from the Playstation version). Each tiny player model is comprised of about 300 polygons that operate independently to displays hundreds of different tricks. The levels and players have great shadowing and almost look third dimensional in all their glory. You could always look upon the graphics engine negatively saying, "It's not as good as the Dreamcast version," but on such a limited processor, it's unbelievable.

Reviewer: Cheryl Peterson Women gymnasts have always possessed precision, power and grace. But it was not until 1972 that a young Soviet athlete, Olga Korbut stepped into the Olympic spotlight and changed the face of the sport forever. Until Korbut, the stars of women's gymnastics were mature, conservative, technically sound veterans in the twenties or early thirties. Today's gymnasts are young risk-takers with a keen competitive spirit and a passion for perfection. This nonfiction book profiles eight of the world's best female gymnastsSimona Amanar, Vanessa Atler, Dominique Dawes, Ling Jie, Svetlana Khorkina, Kristen Maloney, Shannon Miller and Dominique Moceanu. Chapters giving a brief overview of the sport are also included. This is a great reference book for school or library, and or a gift book for the budding gymnast! It is part of the "Women of Sports" series. 1999, Millbrook Press, Ages 8 to 12, $22.90 and 6.95. Reviewer: Dianne Ochiltree

Extractions: by Alfred Lansing In the summer of 1914, Sir Ernest Shackleton set off aboard the Endurance bound for the South Atlantic. The goal of his expedition was to cross the Antarctic overland, but more than a year later, and still half a continent away from the intended base, the Endurance was trapped in ice and eventually was crushed. For five months Shackleton and his crew survived on drifting ice packs in one of the most savage regions of the world before they were finally able to set sail again in one of the ship's lifeboats. Alfred Lansing's Endurance: Shackleton's Incredible Voyage is a white-knuckle account of this astounding odyssey. Oztrack Ice Skating Bookshop
