Mary Pope Osborne's tremendously popular Magic Tree House series launches into a new realm, as Jack and Annie are challenged to save Camelot. Young readers will effortlessly learn the basics of Civil War history, while losing themselves in another gripping tale that has turned many a nonreader into a bookworm.

They are well written books that peak interest in subjects young kids may not yet have access to and have accompanying research guides that give detailed back stories and historical guides to the subjects covered in the novels. Although the intended audience of the series seem to be for children around 8 - 10, our five year old becomes engulfed in the stories every single evening, always looking forward to what adventure Jack and Annie are heading for next.
Amazon also tend to have a wider availability of the series than book stores like Barnes and Nobel at prices up to half the cost of the same.
Telling a bit of history - hard stuff to tell younger ones but in such a good way for them to hear and understand. And putting the reader into the historical moment, bringing history alive. The reader is not only made a part of the story but there is an element of exploration as well. Plus the interest of time travel.
This has a little of something for everyone - exploration, mystery, history and intrigue.
I got this particular book because our church does a service each year to honor those who fought and died and lived during this time period - it’s called Peace Service. Our church sits just a few yards from where the battle of Dranesville occurred.
I look forward to reading more of these books.
Yes, I recommend these books for others to read - become a part of history with each read.
