They are wonderful. My six year old twins are fascinated. We read two chapters to them a night and they are transfixed. The parents and the children in this house highly recommend this series!

Mary Pope Osborne is such a talented writer. I really like her books. I wonder how she got her ideas...

This Magic Tree House Boxed Set has proven to be a wonderful past time for my granddaughter. She reads every evening before bed and it's a time to quiet down and prepare for sleep!! She loves her Magic Tree House books and I intend to get her the rest of the series very soon. The books are just the perfect length with lots of thrills. Your kids will love them.

I made the decision to purchase some of the books to the Magic Tree House series due to the fact I got tired of having to wait for the books to be check in at my library. I am glad I did, and so is my son. My son loved how they came in a "boxed" set.

My children have always LOVED to read, but when I purchased these for my youngest son's birthday (my boys are 6 & 7), the reaction I received after reading the first book was AMAZING! They cried when we had to stop for the night to go to bed and started begging the next morning to keep reading. These books are PERFECT for young imaginations. I will be purchasing the remaining sets as well.

I purchased these books for my 6 yr old, after we had read the whole Junie B. Jones series, the Chapters are a little shorter and seems to take a little longer to get to the point, but she likes them none the less...

The Magic Tree House sure has the magical power to keep my daughter, a very active 7 year old, in her room for at least a few hours everyday. She just love these books! I will get the rest of the series for her very soon!

My son checked one of these out at school. He did not put it down until he finished it and asked for more. So I gave him 3 sets. He did not like reading until he got these books. Service excellent.

The Treehouse series is very good overall. We read 2-3 chapters a night as part of the bedtime routine for our 3 1/2 year old. The stories hold her interest and there are just enough illustrations to anxoiusly await the page to turn. Her vocabulary has also increased due to some less common words and names used as part of the stories.
A word of caution. The Ninja story is scary for younger children and the illustrations are frightening and creepy. We had to throw this book out in the trash. (Review Data Last Updated: 2007-06-25 11:12:53 EST)

These are excellent books. My older son loved to read them and now my first grader loves them. The chapters are short, so they keep their attention and he is very excited to be reading "chapter books". He wants the entire collection.

These are great books to read with your children or to have them read to themselves when they can read. My son has loved these books since he was 3. They are chapter books that hold his attention and we learn about history besides. Money spent on books that educate and hold a younger child's attention is money well spent!

My 1st grader hates to put them down, he would rather read Magic Tree House books, than play video games. He even reads them to his class and explains the story for show and tell. When he was in kindergarten, the teacher would also let him read the Magic Tree House books out loud, not given her a break, but to promote reading out loud. Great books!

My son started this series in Kindergarten this fall and loved it so much that he asked Santa for the entire set. He got much of it for Christmas and spent most of Christmas morning looking through all the titles and putting them all in order. These books are great for the imagination!

I love the ninja book the best because they helped Jack and Annie cross the icy water. I'm 6 years old and these are the first chapter books i've read. My Mom even likes them.
I love all of the books. (Review Data Last Updated: 2006-07-07 00:52:25 EST)

Our 6 year old likes the stories, but keeps referring to the cover to try to get a picture of what is going on in the story. The various stories tie well together and help teach a bit along the way. The kids in the stories get to experience things (Dinosaurs, going to the moon etc) in way that helps with the imagination. The only caveat, there are few pictures, while this is the intent, a better job illustrating the stories would help younger readers as they transition from picture books to chapter books.

I truely value that they package these up into multipacks!!
Again 4 fun books finding JAck and Annie traveling to amazing places! Again all four books tied together with a main plot! WHat things do I love most about MTH? I love that the books are pretty much kept light and airly, not dragged down with too much adversity or darkness. Passing my passion for reading and getting "lost" within a series and characters to my son!! FOr the first time he wants to go out and buy books because of what he knows he will enjoy reading in them. Not because he just knows he likes to be read too! He thinks about what books are about now and what he likes to "read". It is refreashing as a parent not to be picking out of the same stockpile of overread favorites. He constantly WANTS to know what books are next. Where are "we" going next with Jack and Annie!! While some adults may cringe at the simplicity of the characters or plots. I have had to stop reading more then once to wait for a giggle outburst to stop. He gets their humor even if I am groaning. (Review Data Last Updated: 2006-07-07 00:52:25 EST)

My six year old grandson was introduced to the Magic Tree House books by a kindergarten friend. Since he started the set, he has not stopped reading, either reading outloud to an adult, or silently alone. At bedtime he has declined our ritual of me reading to him . . . he reads the Magic Tree House books to me or whomever is putting him to bed. Jack and Ann's adventures are very well written, and even engaging for me. I particularly like Mary Pope Osborne's realistic style of portraying her characters: Pirates talk like pirates, etc. During this summer he has completed books 1 through 12. These books are highly recommended.

There are 4 books in this set and all the stories are varied. My 6 year old grandson really enjoyed reading them on his own and also having them read to him at bed time.

After attempting to sign out the Magic Tree House books in order from our local library without much success due to there popularity - I decided to buy them through Amazon. Purchasing the books in the box set made the price very reasonable. Our family has been spending a lot of time together reading these books and my 5 and 7 year old just can not seem to get enough of them.

I like this book because I like the Saber Tooth. He was kind of funny, but scary. The book is about Annie and Jack and they go through books like a portal. In this book they go to the time of the Ice Age. I like the books because I think the adventures are very good because they are about different places and you learn about them. That is the best thing. I am seven years old (but am getting help from my aunt who is over 13) and I have read volumes 1-8 this summer. I can't wait to get the next ones.

I cannot believe how my son is reading! I bought him the first 8 books for Christmas and by New Years he had read all but one - on his own! He'd rather books than movies!

Meet Jack and Annie. Jack is an eight year old boy who seeks adventure. In every trip, Jack takes notes to learn more interesting facts. He carries his little backpack almost everywhere with his useful supplies inside. Annie is Jack's little sister. Annie is just one year younger than Jack. These two siblings have great times together in many different places. Annie is a sweet, honest, considerate girl who looks up to Jack.
Jack and Annie go lots of places, in lots of different times, helping others in their time, in the present and in the past. For example, in another book, in the same series (Magic Tree House Series) I read a book about Jack and Annie with George Washington! That was a long time ago! Afternoon on the Amazon is an exciting book about Jack and Annie who try to help Morgan le Fay by finding four special things. (Everything they find starts with "M".) In the tree house, every time, they climb up the ladder, look for their trusty friend, Peanut the mouse, and point to a picture in a book while wishing to go there. The tree house starts to spin, spin, and spin faster until they appear in a tree in the place they wish to go. In the rain forest, Jack and Annie have trouble with the following animals: a mother cheetah, a crocodile, a monkey, an army of ants, piranhas and a snake. But in the end, Jack and Annie find out that the animals were just being themselves, with the monkey just trying to be helpful. My favorite part of the book is when Jack is trying to stop their boat, and he accidentally snatched a snake. It really shakes up the story. Jack and Annie try to push the boat fast and duck their heads. They safely escaped, scared to death! This is a very exciting book. In every book (from the Magic Tree House series) behind the cover, it says good things about the author and her books. By reading her books you can see if you think these words are right. I personally think this book matches what the people say. I recommend Mary Pope Osborne's books to everyone! (Review Data Last Updated: 2006-05-02 00:57:13 EST)
