In this episode of the KidLit Love podcast, I’m talking with Matt Landis, a middle grade author whose books aim to make history “not boring”.

His books certainly accomplish that mission, especially his newest series-starter National Archive Hunters: Capitol Chase.

Listen as we talk about his work as a history teacher, his middle grade books and his incredibly cool National RV Tour in 2025. You’ll want to get your school on his itinerary after listening!
