Great book for the young readerJul 26, 2008
By E. Kaufman
I bought the Magic Tree House books 1 through 16 for my eight year old daughter. She loves them. She reads a book in two days. She can relate to the stories and has an easy time explaining what she read. This is a great start-reader for children. Mary Pope uses a healthy combination of every-day words and with some more advanced verbiage. Though my daugter doesn't always understand the big words, she is introduced to them. This challenges her comprehension. I would recommend this series to parents of children ages 7 to 9.

My 7 Year Old Non-Reader Desperate For Each New BookOct 22, 2009
By Samuel Smith
"Sammy"
He has read the first 16 in two weeks. That after reading one book in the last year. He tells me three times a day how much he likes these books. If I told him we had to sell our Wii to buy the next 25 books he wouldn't hesitate.
I think many early reader books are below the intelligence of young kids yet their reading hasn't caught up to more advanced books. This series fills that gap perfectly.

If your kids enjoy the Magic Treehouse series they will like this book. If they are not into this storyline then don't waste your time or money!
