The Magic Treehouse
by Mary Pope Osborne is a series of adventure stories featuring Jack and Annie,
brother and sister, who discover a magic treehouse in the forest near their
home in Frog Creek, Pennsylvania. Magical books send the pair to far away
places in times all gone. Originally published in 1992, the series which totals
28 books and spawned the Magic Treehouse Merlin Mission series and other titles
has been beloved by young readers for almost 30 years. The series is recommended for ages 6-9 and
cane be read aloud or independently with short chapters. The books are
educational and encourages problem solving as each book gives a clue to the
mystery of the treehouse.
My daughter was introduced to the series by her kindergarten
teachers who read the books to the class. Ever since she begged me for the
“Jack and Annie” books. She received a set of the first four books for
Christmas. We read a couple chapters every night and she eagerly listened to
each story and asks questions about the setting of the book. The next step is
for her to read them on her own. I look forward to getting her the entire set.
I highly recommend The Magic Treehouse
series for any family or classroom library.
The Magic Treehouse series is available at all major booksellers
