In this installment of the Ballpark Mysteries series, Kate and her cousin Mike take a trip to Wrigley Field, home of the Chicago Cubs. The two quickly discover that someone has been stealing the famous ivy from the outfield wall. Using a couple of clues and some quick thinking they know they have to catch the thief to keep the Cubs winning streak alive.

This is another great addition to the series. I really enjoy how David Kelly uses special pieces of a ballpark's history and incorporates it into a fun mystery for kids. What a delight!
