5.0 out of 5 stars This is one of the best books I have ever read!!, December 6, 1998
By A Customer
This is one of the best books I have ever read (and I have all of them!) The coolest part is when Jack and Annie leaped on the horse for a ride to the treehouse where they were safe and sound! I like your books so much that I gave them to my friends as birthday presents, and now they enjoy them too! I hope you keep on writing!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic in more ways than imaginable, October 10, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Magic Tree House #16: Hour of the Olympics (A Stepping Stone Book(TM)) (Library Binding)
"Hour Of The Olympics" is good because of the ways you learn about the Olympics, and the Olympic events, plus the legend of Pegasus, the flying horse. So amazing, I almost applauded so loud my neighborhood could hear me. Trust me, you can't miss out on this one.
