5.0 out of 5 starsGood Read for Children
By Beverly Wheeler on June 11, 2008
Format: Paperback
I ordered this book for my 9 year old son. He absolutely loves it. Since he has started reading Magic Tree House books his reading has drastically improved. I believe this book and the Magic Tree House books are a must have for this age group. These books help them learn history facts in a fun way.

5.0 out of 5 starsLearn to enjoy books and a little history at the same time...
By High Expectations on November 26, 2012
Format: Paperback
I have a three and five year old girls and this is the best series going. It is appropriate for the Kindergardener and we have read every single book. Each book in the series is give or take 100 pages but it is a quick and easy read. In reading the books your kids not only get a great story but also pick up on a little history which can lead to some great discussions. I actually read the books with my ipad close by so I can google pictures of the things/places that Jack and Annie (the brother and sister in the books) visit or see. I would recommend these books for every parent/child. When I am done I will be donating the entire set to the local library. Regarding pricing, if your intent is to read the entire series look for don't buy the four book package or single books. There are set of 1-28 and I think there is a set that is everything published 1-48. As with most things, if you buy the whole set you save siginificant money!

5.0 out of 5 starsAncient Rome facts
By jah on July 28, 2013
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
Good for a 9 - 12 year old -- even older though designed for the young reader. I got an ancient Roman coin for my grandson & this book for facts related to the time. The 9 year old is less interested than the 11 year old, but he is interested in the coin & the fact that it is very old (1500 years).

4.0 out of 5 starsMagic Tree House never fails
By LaBreeska on September 21, 2008
Format: Paperback
I only wish I'd discovered this series of books sooner! These books are great supplements to teaching history to your kids. The Magic Tree House website even offers a few free activity pages to go with many of the books and in addition to the history study guide, we use the companion story books to really get "personal" with history.

4.0 out of 5 starsbut this non-fiction companion was a nice refresher for us to read with our Ancient History ...
By Shelli on October 23, 2014
Format: Paperback
It has been years since I read Vacation Under the Volcano with my daughter, but this non-fiction companion was a nice refresher for us to read with our Ancient History text book. Filled with tons of interesting facts, photos, illustrations, and chronological information about the rise and fall of the Roman Empire; elementary and junior high age students will love and benefit from.

3.0 out of 5 starsGood contents but not exactly readable using Paperwhite
By F. Ma on March 16, 2013
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
My daughter enjoys the [AR] book but it's only readable in the landscape mode w/o font adjustment. My daughter has good eyesight so that's not as much of an issue for her but when I read through some of the pages of the book using the Paperwhite, I absolutely cannot read anything on the pages w/o zooming in quite a bit and shifting up/down/left/right.

3.0 out of 5 starsPacked with information...
By Amazon Customer on February 12, 2007
Format: Paperback
There was a lot involved... so much infact that my 8 year old son wasn't very attracted to it. However in the next few years perhaps he'll take another look thought it or use it for a project he does at school. I wouldn't recommend buying this book for 'fun' but rather for direct use with a project you might be working on.

The part of this book that my grandson enjoyed was what happened to Pompeii. At times he played being a Roman God. He had his favorites and his not so favorites.
