Magic Tree House Books 21-24 Boxed Set: Civil War on Sunday; Revolutionary War on Wednesday; Twister on Tuesday; Earthquake in the Early Morning

Great books fun for kids 2nd grade fun to read for anyone .

GREAT series for kids! My son is five, and loves for us to read to him. Right now, these books are the only books that hold his attention. The author has done a superb job with the characters Jack and sister Annie, who support each other in each of their adventures. Start at Book #1 and you will get the continuing saga of Jack and Annie's adventure. Your child not only will be swept away in the treehouse along with Jack and Annie, but they will come away learning a few things about the history in each book. I have had many conversations with my son, the morning after, talking about the book. Well worth the money spent. My son's teacher also highly recommends these books. We will be hanging on to them, for him to read by himself when he gets older. Each book contains 10 chapters, which make it easy to read aloud in a couple of nights during 30 minutes of story time.

Fun books for my 6 year old. He loves these and we have bought they whole set. Fun to read with new readers.

These books are great I think read aloud for first -third graders. I think 2nd-3rd probably read it on their own. But the vocabulary and knowledge is really good with these stories. Our kid is really enjoying them.

We love Magic Treehouse! They were the first books that my seven year old could really read on her own and really helped keep her interested in reading. She now reads at at least a 6th grade level (think, Harry Potter) but still will pick up and read these for fun. We homeschool and I got this set to go along with our American History unit that we're doing. My five year old and three year old also find them engaging enough to sit and listen to when I read aloud.

We started these when my grand child was quite young and now she's reading them on her own. She and I both love them. As a history teacher, I appreciate this first foray into our country and world's past. She's thrilled that some of these books are in her first grade classroom and that other children know about them, too. I agree with many other reviewers that these books have become so much better as the series continues. I'm glad we started at the beginning, but the latter stories are far superior to the first groups.

8 year old grandson loves these books

This was a good selection of the awesome Magic Tree House books. My 7 year old read one a day for four days until she finished them all. She loves the characters and the magical realism of this series. I would definitely recommend Magic Tree House books. Jack and Annie have all kinds of great adventures and missions. This series was specifically about times in American History which was great in giving my daughter information about American History on her level.

My son loves these books. He has started reading them himself (with mom, of course), but is enjoying the stories on his own now too.

My niece loves these books. Very interesting & nicely put up.

tolle, lustige Geschichten, schön gechrieben, phantastisch, aber auch mit etwas Lehrinhalt. Habe jetzt schon fast alle Bücher gekauft. Wir lesen unserem Sohn die Bücher vor, (5J), bestimmt aber auch schön für ältere die selbst lesen können. Gewöhnen muss man sich zunächst an das bräunliche Papier.

The whole experience with this order was great. The books arrived within the stated time and were all in excellent condition.

We started reading the magic tree house series after a trip to America where I think the books are more widely known. The stories follow Jack and Annie on their travels through time to various places in history in a magic tree house. The books are all 10 chapters in length and are all based around some form of historic event or time. For example, we've read about the pyramids, ancient Greece, Pompei and the wild west to name few. As much as the books are fun fictional stories, the subject matter is factual and educational without children seeing it as such. Each story book does have an accompanying fact book although I can't comment on these as we haven't bought them. They did run an English version of the books (which are American based) for the first few although eventually they went back to a common series. We're on book 22 now and I believe there's more than 40. My 4 year old is too young to read them herself, although now she's learning to read at school she does read some of the words. They're probably better suited to 6+ as actual reading material. If like us though you're looking for a good bedtime series to get your teeth into then I can't recommend them enough.
