About this listen
The fourth audiobook in the Zach and Zoe Mysteries - a sports-themed chapter book mystery series by New York Times best-selling author Mike Lupica. Perfect for fans of Cam Jansen!
There's nothing eight-year-old twins Zach and Zoe Walker love more than playing sports and solving mysteries. And when those two worlds collide...well, it doesn't get any better than that.
Soccer season is underway, and though Zach and Zoe play on different travel teams, they're on the same team when it comes to solving mysteries. So when a package arrives in the mail addressed to Zach, the twins are surprised to find a soccer jersey identical to the one Zach wears for his team. But Zach's jersey is in his closet - so who does this jersey belong to and why did they send it? It's a soccer secret - and Zach and Zoe are on the case!
Once again, best-selling author Mike Lupica charms his youngest learners yet with a sports-loving detective duo who can swing for the fences and catch the culprit in one fell swoop. With a recipe equal parts sports and mystery, the Zach and Zoe Mysteries break fresh ground for an author who has been called the greatest sportswriter for kids.
©2019 Mike Lupica (P)2019 Listening LibraryWhat the critics say
"Lupica kicks off a new series starring a pair of 8-year-old twins who solve sports-themed mysteries.... Along with plenty of suspenseful sports action, the author highlights in both tales the values of fair play, teamwork, and doing the 'right thing.'...the supporting cast shows some racial and ethnic diversity. Wholesome, uncomplicated fare for the younger Matt Christopher crowd." (Kirkus Reviews)
"Mike Lupica is bringing his sports knowledge and excellent writing ability to the chapter book world.... [Zach and Zoe] have exciting playoff games, supportive parents, and act true to their ages...there is no evil involved in the mysteries, and the community is supportive. It is evident early on who or what is behind the mysteries, but this should be a positive for youngsters who are just getting started with guessing the outcomes of chapter books." (School Library Connection)
"Zach and Zoe are likable and kind to each other, and their parents are supportive. Lupica knows how to write sports action with a heart.... Give these to young readers who are looking for easy sports fiction or who are new to the mystery genre." (School Library Journal)
