My granddaughter and grandson both enjoy these books. Sometimes it is hard to find the exact book they want. Thank goodness they are numbered in the series so we can keep track of them. They devour them so fast.

Magic Tree House: Books 29-32: #29 Christmas in Camelot; #30 Haunted Castle on Hallow's Eve; #31 Summer of the Sea Serpent; #32 Winter of the Ice Wizard
My 5 year old boy and I love listening to the first 28 stories. I wondered why this set cost the same for only 4 stories. Well they are longer and more complex and involved stories. Here you enter a magical world. ON first listening I thought they really weren't as educational. Jack doesn't have any reference books to help them learn. But on second listening I realized these are lessons of a different type. In Christmas in Camelot when Jack and Annie go to the "other world" they are enticed to join a circle of beautiful dancers. Annie notices that the lost knights are in the circle too and she quickly figures out that they can't stop dancing. Jack is caught up in the dancing so Annie has to convince him that even tho the dancers are beautiful and the dancing is wonderful it is actually very dangerous. The other 3 stories similarly have deceptions that the kids have to see through. I can't wait to see what happens in the next set of stories.

My daughter loves these stories and enjoys listening to the CDs at night as she's going to sleep. We have a small collection she received in a fast food kid's meal, so we thought she might like one of these sets. In previous reviews, people seemed displeased that each story did not have its own CD. To my surprise, when I opened our's each story DOES have it's own CD. This makes it pretty kid friendly since none of the stories are chopped up on different discs. This must be a relatively new change, so if the only thing holding you back from buying these audio sets is that the stories are split between 3 discs, you should try it anyway. We received 4 discs, each w/ it's own book. Great stories and fun to listen to!

These books on cd are entertaining for parents and kids alike! I would recommend them for ages 5-6 and older. There are a few "scary" parts that are a little much for the younger kids, and they are packed with information about true historical events!

Purchased for our granddaughter. She has many of the earlier books and having them on CD allows her to listen to them on her own. She loves the stories.

I thought I was ordering written books and was disappointed to find out otherwise. I'm sure the purchase will be redeemed as it will allow my grandsons to read along with the printed books to increase speed and comprehension. At least that's what I am telling myself.

The CDs arrived as promised and were new condition as stated. Delivery was very timely and will continue to order the series CDs.

The "Magic Tree Books" definitely rate among great books for children. I was amazed at the development offered in learning, comprehension, vocabulary, imagination, and human interest. My grandson cannot go to sleep without hering about the advenyures of Annie and Jack. I am delighted at what he is experiencing at the ages of four and five. Winnie

my daughter loves, we have them all. i didn't realize this was a CD, we usually buy the books but the CD is great too. however i thought would be good as a bedtime story CD and it just keep sher awake!

started with a few books from BurgerKing last year and now have almost the complete collection. Niece just turned 6 in December. Absolutely loves these audio cds and listens on the way to kindergarten. I guess Osbornes Odyssey and greek mythology are next. thanks MPO.
