I am a 7 year old boy who really likes this series. This was one of the best Magic Tree House Merlin Missions there is. In the Merlin Missions, Jack and Annie have to go on a mission to save Camelot, a mythical city. We still don't know why they have to save the city. Summer of the Sea Serpent was definately the best, but if you are just starting to read the Magic Tree House books, you should either start at the beginning, or start with Christmas at Camelot, which is the first of the Merlin Missions.
This book as with all of the magic tree house books is fantastic. My son and I have read every one of them and are highly anticipating the next one in March 2006. Jack and Annie once again go on an exciting mission. These books aren't just fun they are educational also. A must read for all
Jack and Annie are on another exciting adventure. Using the magic tree house in Frog Creek, PA, they travel to Ancient Baghdad. Author Mary Pope Osborne recalls her own travels in Iraq to write this Magic Tree House story. Like other adventures Jack and Annie have experienced, the brother and sister team must solve riddles in order to complete a mission. Jack and Annie's mission is to help the caliph of the Arab empire spread wisdom to the world. Using magic rhymes to help them complete their mission, Jack and Annie travel through a desert, battle a sandstorm, and face bandits to deliver a treasure to the caliph in Baghdad. I enjoyed this story of Jack and Annie's adventure in Ancient Baghdad. The tale has mystery and excitment that will appeal to kids as well as adults. I also like the historical settings and information about places that can be learned through these adventures. I look forward to the next magic trip of Jack and Annie.
Each time I purchase a book for my Grandchildren, I read it before I give it. At seven Alex is now reading chapter books and This is the second Magic Tree House book I have read. Alex was pleased when he saw another of the series. The action, dialogue and narrative are interesting and age appropriate. I intend to purchase more of the series for future gifts for Alex and my other Grandchildren as they grow ready. I feel comfortable giving any of the books in the series as gifts, the author, Mary Pope Osborne, is talented and insightful.Beverly J Scott Author of Jena's Choice
Given to my grand daughter for her birthday. She is 5 and starting to sound out words. Although beyond her reading skills now, she loves to be read to, and at the same time will learn about history at the same time. My son and daughter in law says she has really started to enjoy these type of books
I love the entire Magic Tree House series. We are on book number 34 and continue to buy. As a grandmother, I find each book with a great leeson and point out the lesson to my grandson. As a child of 9, he will stop anything he is doing to listen when I start reading to him.
My 7 year-old loves the Magic Tree House books. Every time she sees a new one she has to have it. And what's not to love, for a Mother, about a book that teaches my child about Camels and Sand storms? Five stars, I love when she finds something she cant put down.
The Magic Tree House books are a MUST READ collection for all children. Unlike many other series for young readers, the Magic Tree House should be read in chronological order to best appreciate Jack and Annie's travels through time as they go on various missions; which are typically completed in four parts. Parents and educators will enjoy going along for the ride as much as their students! My daughter is a teenager now but she still gets excited when she sees a new tree house adventure has come out.
