![]() Books are also magical in Pope’s stories because, well, of course they are. ![]() There is always some sort of mystery and some danger, although nothing I would consider very scary. Then there are also the important ingredients of magic, time travel, the tree house itself and - depending on the setting of the particular story - other exciting features like dinosaurs or pirates. A lot happens in the first few pages and time flies while you’re with Jack and Annie on their latest adventure. There are elements Osborne included and the elements she avoided that make reading Magic Tree House like spending time with your favorite people in the world.įirst, they’re propulsive. ![]() I never read Mary Pope Osborne’s series as a kid, but having read a few as an adult I definitely see the appeal. Early chapter books like the Magic Tree House series can be hard to find. ![]()

Meanwhile, I can't imagine younger readers doing anything except zoning out and getting restless as you read aloud to them phrases like ". The information seems too broad and vague for an elementary student to use as a source of information for schoolwork. I'm not entirely sure who the intended audience is. Presented as if it were a school project by various fictional students, each two-page spread is like a Power Point slide with an image, a short, high-level overview blurb of a concept, some supporting bullet points, and repetition of the title refrain.

That being said, there was much about this book I loved. The endless descriptions of troop movements and the crushing weight of poor conditions and lack of food on the troops were given too much attention and slowed down the pace of the book. The second part of the book, the Prussian campaign, dragged considerably. I'm sorry to say I think the author fell prey to her own fascination with the military history of the time and lost sight of what the reader's personal interests might be. This was another foray into the foreign culture and politics of the Napoleonic era, this time exploring first Istanbul and the Turkish people and then moving north to the crushing military defeat suffered by the Prussians at Napoleon's hands. ![]() ![]() The questions, Whom do I desire?
