4.5 stars. Jack and Annie travel to the prairie and visit a dugout schoolhouse, write with chalk on slate and befriend pioneers. They encounter a twister and have to hide in a storm cellar. This is one of their more exciting and endearing adventures.

Not that easy to follow along with the pictures and instructions, even with a lot of the basic sewing skills.

We loved this intro to Shakespearean England and the time of Queen Elizabeth I! We blazed through it.

Inappropriate for little kids but entertaining

This Magic Treehouse book was very informative- covering the harsh conditions and cruelty of the Civil War. Jack and Annie meet Clara Barton and (mild spoiler) a distant ancestor. My 4.5yo thought this book was tragic but interesting.

This has been a great book for taking the moral judgements out of not having a clean house. It also contains some great cleaning hacks and makes you realize that clean enough is truly enough.

It was a very detailed and amazing book with lots of twists and turns awaiting you around every bend.

This book is a sequel to Circus Mirandus by Cassie Beasley.

4.5 stars. I enjoyed this fantasy camp adventure featuring a crew of five fearless, thrill-seeking friends. They encounter fierce, mysterious creatures after dark and go on a puzzling quest through the woods. This short graphic novel is such a fun ride! I read this because my 7yo daughter blazed through the first five books in the series and I didn’t want to feel left out. I can see why she’s eager to read them all. As is the nature of comics, this book ends on a cliffhanger and feels unresolved.

It’s a good book
