Darby Creek Introduces New High-Interest Series for Middle-Grade and YA Readers Featuring Mysteries, Football, and Video Games


This fall, solve crimes with a young detective who lives in the British Museum, hit the gridiron with a high school football team, and get lost in a virtual reality video game with three new series from Darby Creek, a division of Lerner Publishing Group.

Young mystery fans will love The Adventures of Lottie Lipton series written by Dan Metcalf and illustrated by Rachelle Panagarry. Lottie Lipton is a nine-year-old investigator extraordinaire who lives in the British Museum-which means she is never far away from mystery and exciting adventures, usually involving priceless artifacts. With interactive clues throughout each book, readers help solve the mysteries.

The fast-paced, football-based plots of the six-book Gridiron series will hook reluctant readers. In these stories, football rules more than just high school-it's at the heart of the town. Each book in the series feaures characters facing challenges on and off the field in page-turning plots.



In Level Up it's the year 2089, and L33T C0RP has developed a new virtual reality game. The company needs testers to smooth out glitches, so teenagers from around the country are secretly chosen to test the games. Suddenly, the teens find themselves in the middle of a virtual reality. Their objective? Win the game, or be trapped within it forever. Level Up will keep reluctant readers on the edge of their seats.
