Book Synopsis Riding high in fifth grade, Chase Manning joins the Apple Valley baseball team, and his clutch hitting leads the squad to within two victories of the school’s first league championship. Confidence is high—until Chase’s lucky batting glove turns up missing the day of the semifinal game. Unsure whether the theft represents a personal attack or an attempt to derail the entire baseball team, Chase must track down the culprit and find the glove before the team boards the bus at 3 o’clock. Surprising and suspense-filled plot twists fill the pages of this single-day, real-time mystery thriller. About the Chase Manning Mystery Series The Chase Manning Mystery Series features single-day, real-time thrillers that occur on an elementary school campus. Written for readers 8-12 years of age by National Board Certified Teacher Steve Reifman, the series launched with the award-winning Chase Against Time, in which fifth grader Chase Manning must investigate the mysterious disappearance of the cello that the school plans to auction off to save its prestigious music program. Chase Against Time has enjoyed rave reviews from children, parents, and teachers. Young readers love the book’s fast-paced, action-packed format while parents and teachers appreciate the book’s kid-friendly tone and content. Chase is now back in the eagerly anticipated sequel, Chase for Home. Note for Elementary School Teachers and Parents Chase Against Time and Chase for Home are Level Q on the Fountas & Pinnell scale. Both books are ideally suited to be used as read alouds and mentor texts during Reading Workshop and Writing Workshop units on mystery and “edge-of-seat” fiction because they include numerous examples of end-of-chapter cliffhangers, red herrings, suspects, motives, and other important mystery elements. If you are interested in teaching children how to craft their own mysteries, check out Steve’s e-book, The Ultimate Mystery Writing Guide for Kids.

    I am the parent of a fifth grader who wrote the following review. “Chase for Home is a very good mystery book and will definitely give you some thinking to do about the characters and who stole it. The culprit was definitely not what I thought. I also liked how near the end of the book when they reveal the thief - they did not tell it right away. This book was funny and serious at the same time. This book is a lot of fun to read, and is very suspenseful.”

    5th grader Chase Manning is racing against time to find his lucky baseball mitt before the bus leaves for the semi-final. It is very suspenseful. I especially like Chase's strategy for finding out who stole his lucky mitt in one of the last chapters. All the little details are the most important, new readers! I can't wait to read the next book in this thrilling series. The author Steve Reifman hits it out of the ballpark!

    I loved the suspense throughout the story and Chase's new obsession of baseball. I was on pins and needles for the mystery and how Chase solves it just in the nick of time! Reifman does a great job with his fluency for writing awesome mysteries that just make you keep wanting to read more. Check out his 1st book Chase Against Time and be on the lookout for the next book yet to come!

    This is a great book for the whole family! I love the use of a single day to frame the action. With great plot twists and solid lessons to be learned, Reifman has done it again. He is a gifted writer with an uncanny knowledge of how these children talk and think. I can't wait for the next installment of this sparkling series of books.
