About this book

From School Library Journal Grade 1-4-The adventures of Jack and Annie continue in the four books by Mary Pope Osborne included here: Stage Fright on a Summer Night; Good Morning, Gorillas; Thanksgiving on Thursday; High Tide in Hawaii. In these tales, brother and sister journey in their magic tree house to different times and places and land in William Shakespeare's London, the African rainforest to learn about gorillas, help prepare the first Thanksgiving, and hang ten in old Hawaii. Each trip is easy enough to navigate with no mishaps or danger on the horizon for the siblings, which should be reassuring to young listeners. Once the pair finds the answer to the clue provided by their magical guide, Morgan LeFay, they are quickly transported back to the woods near their home. The four stories are linked together because there is a "special magic" to be found in each place. Osborne's narration sets the right tone whether she is speaking as Shakespeare or as little sister Annie. Some background music sets the scene for each foray. A great addition for libraries with Magic Tree House fans.Robin Lensing, Pawtucket Public Library, RICopyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
