Day of the Dragon King (Magic Tree House) Paperback – April 20, 1998

My son enjoyed this book. He said they are saved by a piece of yarn and it was cool. He is reading this whole series.

These books are a cry of relief from the five minute books we usually read with our son and they have already taught him so much about science, nature, and particularly history. Jack and Annie, the lead characters in the series, travel through time and meet with prominent historical figures such as Equipment Queens, take a trip to the moon, spend a day with Abraham Lincoln, land in camp with General George Washington as he is ready to cross the Delaware, and even convince a young Mozart to continue his pursuit in music.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.

Learning to read because he loves the subject

The book was in brand new condition and as described. We have been trying to fill the gaps in our collection and this is what we needed. This series of books is absolutely amazing and for boys or girls. I highly recommend to any parent looking for chapter book collection for beginner to moderate readers in elementary school.

It was such a good book it had a lot of things I did not know you should buy this book they have plenty more Annie has a way with animal's. and Jack love to say let's look in the book they have a tree house there is a lot of books in there they point at a picture and say I wish we could go there and go there it ish a good book it is also very funny

It does have wear and tare but other than that is fine.

I'm a big fan of ancient history!!!!! I love it love it love it!!At school we have this read your heart out program where we have to read 4 books a month and take accelerated reader tests on them and every book of yours I read, I take a test on. I love love love your books! I hope you never stop writing them!!!!!- Dulaney H.

My four year old son is in love with this chapter series! A friend suggested it to us since he seemed ready for a more advanced reading material at bedtime. My husband reads him a chapter every night...sometimes more because they don't want to stop. It's become a great tradition for them, and something they both look forward to. We love that there are so many in the collection! Start with number 1 and just continue. :)
