5.0 out of 5 stars Polar Bears Past Bedtime By Mackenzie, January 29, 2006
A Kid's Review
Mackenzie Mosley

Morgan the librarian gave Jack and Annie a 4th scroll and a book to start an adventure. 3 other adventures were already done. The 4th scroll and book were about adventures in the Arctic. The Arctic was very cold, windy, and snowy. They openned the scroll which had a clue that they need to solve. The story was about solving the clue. They were cold and read the book the help them.

When they were the reading the book they heard wolves by the tree house. The wolves actually huskies pulling the sled with a seal hunter. The seal hunter gave them warm clothes made from seal skin. The seal hunter then invited them to his house which was an igloo. Jack and Annie ate seal meat. The seal hunter showed Jack and Annie the mask that looked like polar bears.

Jack and Annie took the mask outside to see what the dogs were barking at and found baby polar bears. They followed the baby polar bears to the frozen sea. Jack and Annie were on the ice and it began to crack. The mother polar bear got her babies off of the cracking ice by sliding on her belly. Jack and Annie follwed her off of the ice on their bellies. When they were on the shore they saw the Northern Lights.

Jack and Annie solved the riddle and went back to the treehouse. They could not go back right away because there was another riddle. They used the other scrolls to solve the 5th riddle which took them to their favorite place home.

The problem of the story was about solving the riddles to get them home. They got home by going on a adventure to find clues.

4.0 out of 5 stars This book is cool! and cold!, March 18, 1998
By A Customer
Jack and Annie went to the Artic wearing only their bathing suits. Luckily, a guy helped and gave them warm clothes. He also helped them get back to the tree house after they solved the mystery. - Kyle (age 6)
