Great series of books!
My little ones are obsessed with baseball and are constantly asking me to read the Ballpark Mysteries series!
They're like The Magic Treehouse for baseball fans.
Each story includes a little bit of baseball history!

Already have read the first two books and had to order this book right away! My son enjoys the combination of the baseball story along with the mystery. The book combines real information about the L.A. Dodgers in the story. There is even a fun facts section at the end of the book that shares detailed and interesting information about the ballpark and team's history. Great book!

I loved this book for my nephew because GO DODGERS! And i needed him to know it. This was just prepping him for the season. Worked great.

I bought for my 8 year old grandson. It is part of a series, and yet each book does not require the reader to have read any others. Definitely do not have to read in order. He can finish it in a day, not a school day, because it keeps is interest. It also is based on facts. He enjoys the books. I have even preordered the next one coming out in 2014. He is excited to know he will get it soon after it is published.

Glad we discovered this series. Since we received them he has been reading one after the other. My eight year old loves this book. It's both a mystery and sports book. What could be better?! Definitely recommend.
