Why read it?

1 author picked Physical Education for Children as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

The big yellow book on PE taught me so much about movement, lesson planning, and skill development. It was immaculately researched and dense with ideas, progressions, charts, and sample lesson plans. I have about fifty sections marked with sticky paper tabs. 

Coaches who want to develop their athletes/players/students rather than cherry-pick the big kids need to know how to teach rather than just what to teach. This book is invaluable as a teaching resource. 

I also loved the feel of the old hardback, brimming with knowledge.

From James' list on youth sports coaches.
