Description

Jack and Annie time travel back to medieval England via a magic tree house. Book #2

Quick Summary

Jack and Annie tumble through a magical tree house and find themselves in medieval England, where they get a taste of castle life, meet a gruff knight, and must solve a mystery about a hidden treasure. It's a fast-paced, easy-to-read chapter book that keeps younger readers on their toes with short chapters and fun historical details, making it perfect for kids who are just moving into early chapter books. The humor pops up when Jack tries to act like a knight while Annie gets caught up in the castle's secret passageways, and there are a few mildly tense moments like when they hear the clang of armor and the echo of a ghostly knight that might give sensitive readers a tiny scare, but nothing too frightening. If your child enjoyed the first Magic Tree House adventure, they'll find the same mix of time-travel excitement and light learning in this sequel, and fans of simple, action-filled series like "The Time Warp Trio" will likely gravitate toward it as well.
