Kidlit Love: Conversations with Picture Book, Middle Grade and YA Authors

E97: Baseball Mysteries & Football Mysteries with David A. Kelly


Listen Later

On this episode of the KidLit Love podcast, I’m talking with David A. Kelly about his newest early chapter books: Satchel’s Stolen Strike and The Two-Minute Warning. 

These books are from his beloved series: Ballpark Mysteries and Football Mysteries. David’s books have been connecting with sports and mystery-minded readers for years and his collection keeps on growing. 

Come listen as we talk about the spark that started it all, his enviable process of book research and what his hopes are for the series.

You’ll find the show notes for the episode with links to all of the books and resources mentioned right here: https://www.alitlife.com/2025/01/23/baseball-mysteries-football-mysteries-with-david-a-kelly/
