"Review from a Six Year Old"
My name is Euan and I am six and I like The Magic Treehouse series. I REALLY like it. It's about children, Jack and Annie, who go on adventures. They go to the sea, to Pompei (that was a sad one because some people died) and to Ancient Greece and to other really cool places. I liked the ninjas and I also liked the dolphins and I am looking forward to the Titanic.

"Great series of books."
I brought this set of books for my 7yo son to try and get him interested in reading. All three of my children aged 7, 9, and 11 thought the magic tree house stories were great. I have since brought the actual books and my son was actually reading one in bed with the torch. These books have helped him get a little more interested in reading and for some boys, thats a struggle.
"Great book, totally engaging"
My 5 1/2 year old hyperactive boy loves this - keeps him rapt for hours during long drives. Highly recommended!
"Love this series."
This is a great series. My daughter loves these books. We listen to these together and I can see that she is very engaged in the books. The author has a great way of reading them, like no other reader could do. Love them, love them.
"My kids love these stories!"
Absolutely! My sons, ages 3 and 5, both get swept away with these stories. They like this series even better than 1-8. I like that the stories teach them something about history, while still encourage them to use their imaginations. I also like that the brother and sister don't argue, but work together as a team during their adventures.
We love to listen to these on car trips or in waiting rooms to pass the time.
"Great Stories"
Absolitely! My daughter listens to these stories over and over. They are cute and I don't even mind listening along with her. The reader is great!
"My kids LOVE this!"
My girls love these books and I love that they get a little history and fun.
Both Jack and Annie have endeared themselves to my girls, especially the almost 4 year old. She always wants to listen before she goes to sleep.

"My 5 year old is entranced."
My son loves this series. We listen to it all the time in the car. I am thankful there are so many stores so I don't go crazy.
"Wonderful, as always!"
We've purchased the first 18 books for my children (aged 4 and 5) and plan to continue through the series. Mary Pope Osborne does a great job; the only thing better would be if they were dramatized.
I love so many things about this series: That Jack and Annie are kind to one another, the positive messages about reading and the idea that reading can take you places, and the historical accuracy of each book. My kids love them!
"Great Kids Story"
One of the best kids books I have listened to so far.
Great for kids imagination and also education about times and places throughout history and the world!
