MATT CHRISTOPHER
Multiple Sports Series
Some of the most popular children's series today have come from the pen of Matt Christopher, a writer of sports books for boys and girls of all ages. Many of his story ideas were taken from his own life experiences and observations of how kids think, feel, and act in different situations. Coming from a family of nine, he knew a great deal about sisters and brothers and the problems of growing up. He also was a talented athlete, playing baseball, football and soccer in high school. Kidsreads.com has gathered a wide selection of his books ranging from his popular Peach Street Mudders series, Soccer Cats series, Sports Biography series, and more that we think you will enjoy. Christopher was always aware of the current trends in sports and these books cover a wide range from the traditional selections like baseball, football and basketball to the more contemporary sports like inline skating, dirt biking, and skateboarding. Although he is no longer living, his name carries on with most of his books being continually reprinted for new generations and new additions being written every year as part of his legacy to children the world over.
