Default Safe at Home, a baseball card mystery

For those of you with kids or grandkids, ages 8-12, I thought you'd like to know about my children's book entitled, Safe at Home - a baseball card mystery.

Safe at Home tells the story of Trevor Mitchell, an 11-year-old boy, whose aged great-grandfather gives him a 1915 Babe Ruth rookie card valued at $50,000. Trevor's joy is threatened by the mysterious disappearance of the card and by his friends' skepticism about great-grandpa’s claim of being the only man in baseball history to steal home off Babe Ruth.

You can find it on amazon, bn.com or wherever books are sold.

30 years ago, when he was a fledgling intern and I was much younger, Mr. Skead and myself actually worked at the same company (Sports Information Data Base).
