good submitted by karenkay on July 28, 2011, 3:44pm Jack and Annie (brother and sister) discover a tree house that can take them any place in the books inside the tree house. They meet Morgan, the owner of the tree house, who is a magical librarian. In each book, they are given a puzzle to solve and a reference book that helps them. They explore science and history in the process of solving these puzzles. Some of the books were a bit scary for my kids. Generally, Jack and Annie work well together but there are times when Annie makes poor decisions that get them into trouble. A good way to sneak in some teaching in a reasonably entertaining and inoffensive manner

Great Series submitted by mysterio on June 28, 2012, 2:16am The Magic Tree House series brings back so many great memories. I remember reading these books when I was in the third grade and they were my favorite books. Everyone in my class was so into these books, they wouldn’t let go of them. These books are action-packed, full of adventure, filled with astounding twists and turns, and sometimes give the reader a nice laugh. Not only do they entertain the reader, but they also give tons of information about history. The storylines aren’t all that bad, either. I think it’s a nice way to educate our young ones. The series is a very interesting mix of fiction and nonfiction. Sometimes, I even find myself skimming through the books just for a nice, quick, twenty-minute read. I bought a few of the books when I was younger and now I’ve passed them on to my younger sister. She not only loves the series, but she is determined to read the entire series. I also appreciate the fact that the author, Mary Pope Osborne, is still writing books in the Magic Tree House series. Each book is a simple chapter book, ranging from seventy pages to one-hundred twenty pages. I would definitely recommend this entire series to anyone from kindergarten to fourth grade (based on the individual’s reading level, of course).

RECOMENDED!!!!! submitted by yingchenjin on June 24, 2013, 5:02pm I loved the whole series when I was in second grade and I still love the series

Wow submitted by purunai on August 5, 2015, 2:58pm I partly like this book just because I never thought that the ending would never be what it is

Ice wizard submitted by JY 2005 on August 25, 2018, 8:37pm Jack and Annie try to find the Ice wizard's eye to help their friends.

Excellent series submitted by TLW1998 on August 5, 2019, 9:01pm We love Magic Treehouse books. They are educational, and the characters are kind and sweet. The storylines are good, and I even enjoy reading them to my 4-year old. These books have just the right intensity to make you want to keep turning the page, but not scaring your kid. They are excellent adventure books where you learn cool facts along the way. And, they teach kids through Jack’s example to use books for reference and as a resource to help you. They definitely promote a love of reading by using books throughout their adventures.

I can not say enough good things about this series. It is the best children’s chapter book series that I ever ran across. We ended up buying the entire collection because we read them so often and again and again.

The Merlin Missions (later half of the Magic Treehouse series) are a bit longer and involve more magic and fantasy lands. They are great imaginative tales, and they are considered a little more advanced reading.

In this book (the fourth Merlin Mission), Jane and Annie (siblings) travel to a magical frozen land where they have to find an eyeball.

good submitted by .-.-.-. on June 12, 2021, 7:53am This one was exciting and action packed. I enjoyed there having be an ice wizard. Plenty of suspense. 4/5 stars.
